Soliton superlattices in twisted hexagonal boron nitride
Solitons may develop when strain forms at line defects separating commensurate domains in misaligned or lattice-mismatched van der Waals heterostructures. Here, the authors use atomic-force microscopy and nano-infrared spectroscopy to image solitons in thin hBN crystals in the form of long-range per...
