Moiré Heterostructures - A Condensed Matter Quantum Simulator
Offered By: International Centre for Theoretical Sciences via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore the fascinating world of moiré heterostructures and their potential as condensed matter quantum simulators in this 50-minute lecture by Dante Kennes. Delve into the emergent electronic, magnetic, and topological phenomena in two-dimensional synthetic structures of quantum materials. Discover how reduced dimensionality and frustrated coupling across 2D interfaces lead to new electronic band structures and host emergent behaviors unattainable in bulk systems. Learn about the interplay between electronic correlations, spin-orbit coupling, crystal structure, symmetry, and topology in these engineered quantum materials. Gain insights into topics such as flat bands, band topology, correlated phenomena in twisted van der Waals heterostructures, and the potential applications of these systems as quantum simulators.
