Designing flat bands by strain

© 2019 American Physical Society. We study the effects of heterostrain on moiré bands in twisted bilayer graphene and bilayer transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) systems. For bilayer graphene with a twist angle near 1, we show that heterostrain significantly increases the energy separation between...
