Review: moiré-of-moiré superlattice in twisted trilayer graphene.

Abstract

When a third layer of graphene is transferred on top of twisted bilayer graphene with a second twist, the atomic and electronic structure of the system can be significantly enriched. Generally, the two coexisting moiré superlattices give rise to a higher-order moiré-of-moiré (MoM) superlattice, with a plethora of new length scales and associated novel quantum phenomena. This article reviews the current theoretical understanding and experimental observations of twisted trilayer graphene MoM (or supermoiré) superlattices, and the theoretical predictions and ongoing experimental efforts for unraveling rich exotic quantum phenomena and underlying physics.
