Heterostrain and temperature-tuned twist between graphene/h-BN bilayers

Abstract Two-dimensional materials stacked atomically at small twist angles enable the modification of electronic states, motivating twistronics. Here, we demonstrate that heterostrain can rotate the graphene flake on monolayer h-BN within a few degrees (− 4° to 4°), and the twist angle stabilizes a...
