The holistic understanding of superconductivity in moiré quantum materials
Moiré materials are a unique platform to study novel quantum phenomena. Their exotic properties, resulting from electron interactions, present an opportunity to develop novel fundamental knowledge and innovative technologies. Moiré superlattices arise when atomically thin layers are slightly misaligned. Their hybridization creates flat bands – states where electrons have zero kinetic energy. As a consequence, interactions between them dominate the physics. This means that the material’s properties cannot be understood in terms of the individual electrons but as a collective phase that all belong to. Superconductivity, correlated insulators and topology have been reported, but their nature…
