摘要:

莫尔超晶格的物理机制及其在范德华材料中导致的迷你能带形成,开辟了凝聚态物理中一个激动人心的新领域。这些体系在低色散能带中展现出丰富的相图,包含新颖物理现象和奇异关联相。过渡金属二硫化物,尤其是二硫化钼(MoS2),是将莫尔电子学研究拓展至石墨烯之外的潜在候选材料。我们的输运谱测量与分析揭示了 MoS2 莫尔超晶格中由关联驱动的相变以及离散迷你能带的出现,这些现象迄今仍难以捉摸。我们分辨出这些迷你能带,它们源于电子通过 MoS2 与其金属引线之间肖特基势垒的量子力学隧穿。由初步方法推导出的能量尺度与我们的实验观测惊人一致。热激活行为表明,低温下存在由完全自旋-谷对称性破缺驱动的 Lifshitz 相变。这些引人入胜的发现展现了扭转 MoS2 在探索关联电子态及相关物理方面的潜力。

英文摘要:

The physics of moir'e superlattices and the resulting formation of mini-bands in van der Waals materials have opened up an exciting new field in condensed matter physics. These systems exhibit a rich phase diagram of novel physical phenomena and exotic correlated phases that emerge in the low-dispersing bands. Transition metal dichalcogenides, in particular, molybdenum disulfide (MoS2), are potential candidates to extend the studies on moir'e electronics beyond graphene. Our transport spectroscopy measurements and analysis reveal a correlation-driven phase transition and the emergence of discrete mini-bands in MoS2 moir'e superlattices that remained elusive so far. We resolve these mini-bands arising from quantum mechanical tunneling through Schottky barriers between the MoS2 and its metallic leads. Energy scales deduced from a first approach exhibit an astounding agreement with our experimental observations. The behavior under thermal activation suggests a Lifshitz phase transition at low temperatures that is driven by a complete spin-valley symmetry breaking. These intriguing observations bring out the potential of twisted MoS2 to explore correlated electron states and associated physics.
