INTERLAYER EXCITONS

Moiré or not

A Publisher Correction to this article was published on 01 June 2020

This article has been updated

Two studies investigate the behaviour of localized interlayer excitons in van der Waals heterostructures, offering insights into their dipolar interactions and the effect of moiré trapping potentials for the design of quantum optical applications based on 2D materials.
