Researchers Add New “Twist” to Classical Material Design

Summary by Ground News

Twisted epitaxy method could revolutionize semiconductor applications and quantum electronics. Researchers added a layer of gold between two sheets of a traditional semiconducting material, molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) Because the top and bottom sheets were oriented differently, the gold atoms could not align with both simultaneously, which allowed the structure to twist.

Researchers Add New “Twist” to Classical Material Design

Scientists have discovered that crystals can twist when they are sandwiched between two substrates – a critical step toward exploring new material properties for electronics and other applications. Researchers from the Department of Energy's SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, Stanford University
