Moiré is different: New Twists in the Tale of Strong Correlations
I will give an overview of how advances in engineering twisted two-dimensional materials with a “moiré superlattice” have revealed a rich playground for investigations into strongly-correlated electronic matter. I’ll introduce the theories deployed to explain some of the experimental puzzles that arise and give a personal view on the most promising lines of future work.
