We will review the beginning of experimental and theoretical
studies of moire systems and their evolution up to present. This type of
systems represent a new way of “growing” materials, and has tremendous
potential both for fundamental physics as well as for applications. Two
dimensional periodic crystals, whose separation between atoms is of order
angstroms, can be twisted controllably with respect to each other such
that they form new “periodicities”, called moire periodicities. In the new
“unit cell” we find thousands of atoms of the original crystal. These atoms
behave in ways that are incredibly counterintuitive. We show how the
controlled twisting of graphene and MoTe2 layers has led to a slew of
states of matter not possible in bulk conventional materials. We will show
how the collective behavior of thousands of p orbitals in a moire unit cell
of graphene can create single Heavy fermion at moire scale, and how the
interaction between such fermions can lead to a perfect quantum
simulator of an Anderson model. We will then present a catalogue of
possible twistable materials and show how a huge variety of strongly
interacting models can be realized in twisted homo and hetero twisted
bilayers and multilayers of these materials.
