Engineered DNA Moiré Superlattices
Moiré patterns are commonly observed phenomena across all length scales. A moiré pattern arises from the spatial modulation of stacked sublattices, which have slightly different lattice constants and/or orientations. This pattern forms a superlattice with a larger periodicity, spanning multiple unit cells of the sublattices. To date, moiré superlattices comprising sublattices with lattice constants of several nanometers have not been experimentally realized. Moiré superlattices at this length scale do not have counterparts in naturally occurring materials, but represent analogues to twisted van der Waals and twisted nanophotonic systems. This DMoS project aims to underscore a pinnacle in…
