Multilayered Atomic Relaxation in van der Waals Heterostructures
When two-dimensional van der Waals materials are stacked to build heterostructures, moiré patterns emerge from twisted interfaces or from a mismatch in the lattice constant of individual layers. Relaxation of the atomic positions is a direct, generic consequence of the moiré pattern, with many impli...
