Abstract:
Most moiré pattern structures are constructed by twisting the angle of two similar 2D materials. The corresponding electronic structures are fixed in device applications. Here we study moiré patterns constructed with monolayers of InSe and ferroelectric In2Se3. The ferroelectricity of In2Se3 induces deep electron trap states and allows the switch of moiré pattern by an applied electric field. Using a unique linear scaling computational method, we systematically studied the electronic structures, localized state sizes, and strong correlation effects of switchable moiré patterns of systems containing close to 10 000 atoms.

Phase Contrast and Differential Interference Contrast Microscopy
In-phase-contrast microscopes, interference between light directly passing through a cell and light refracted by cellular components is used to create high-contrast, high-resolution images without staining. It is the oldest and simplest type of microscope that creates an image by altering the wavelengths of light rays passing through the specimen. Altered wavelength paths are created using an annular stop in the condenser. The annular stop produces a hollow cone of...
