Bilayer Graphene (VIDEO) University of Texas at Dallas This video is under embargo. Please login to access this video. To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video Caption This animation shows what happens when two stacked graphene layers are misaligned by a small amount called a twist angle. A new periodic design in the mesh emerges, called a moiré pattern. University of Texas at Dallas physicists are investigating how the twist angle affects the electronic properties of such twisted bilayer graphene.
