Compelling evidence suggests distinct correlated electron behavior may exist only in clean 2D materials such as 1T-TaS2. Unfortunately, experiment and theory suggest that extrinsic disorder in free standing 2D layers disrupts correlation-driven quantum behavior. Here we demonstrate a route to realizing fragile 2D quantum states through endotaxial polytype engineering of van der Waals materials. The true isolation of 2D charge density waves (CDWs) between metallic layers stabilizes commensurate long-range order and lifts the coupling between neighboring CDW layers to restore mirror symmetries via interlayer CDW twinning. The twinned-commensurate charge density wave (tC-CDW) reported herein has a single metal--insulator phase transition at ~350 K as measured structurally and electronically. Fast in-situ transmission electron microscopy and scanned nanobeam diffraction map the formation of tC-CDWs. This work introduces endotaxial polytype engineering of van der Waals materials to access latent 2D ground states distinct from conventional 2D fabrication.

Quasicrystalline 30° Twisted Bilayer Graphene as an Incommensurate Superlattice with Strong Interlayer Coupling
层间耦合可用于设计范德华异质结构(超晶格)的电子结构,以获得单一材料中不可能的特性。到目前为止,异质结构的研究一直集中在具有长程莫尔周期的公度超晶格上。具有旋转对称性但不具有平移对称性的无公度异质结构(类似于准晶)不仅在自然界中罕见,而且由于缺乏相位相干性,层间相互作用通常被认为是可以忽略的。本文报道了在Pt(111)衬底上成功生长的准晶态30°扭曲双层石墨烯(30°-tBLG),并揭示了其电子结构。低能电子衍射和1383 cm $^{-1}$处的谷间双共振喇曼模式证实了30°-tBLG。此外,每个石墨烯层的布里渊区内部镜像狄拉克锥的出现以及区边界处的间隙开口表明这两个石墨烯层经由广义Umklapp散射机制耦合,即一个石墨烯层中的狄拉克锥通过另一个石墨烯层的倒易晶格矢量的散射。我们的工作突出了层间耦合在无公度准晶超晶格中的重要作用,从而将能带结构工程扩展到无公度超结构。

A single-projection three-dimensional reconstruction algorithm for scanning transmission electron microscopy data
对三维纳米结构的兴趣增加,推动了能够在纳米级或纳米级以下三维成像的电子显微镜技术。我们提出了一种重建算法,作为输入的一个焦点系列的四维扫描透射电子显微镜(4D-STEM)数据。我们将该方法应用于铅铱酸盐,铅$_2$铱$_2$ O $_7$,钇稳定的氧化锆,Y $_{0.095}$ Zr $_{0.905}$ O $_2$,异质结构从数据采集与样品在一个单一的平面视图取向,沿光束方向堆叠的外延层。我们表明,Pb-Ir原子柱是可见的重建体积的最上层。我们比较这种方法的替代技术的深度切片使用微分相衬扫描透射电子显微镜(DPC-STEM)和多层重叠关联重建。
