Microscopy with a twist - exploring reciprocal space by tunneling
The advent of twisted bilayer graphene has opened a new world of engineering quantum materials and quantum phases of matter. The recently developed quantum twisting microscope (QTM) leverages these developments for a new tunneling probe of van der Waals materials, which combines spatial resolution with direct access to reciprocal space. In this talk, I will discuss this new and exciting experimental technique from a theoretical perspective, including both elastic and inelastic tunneling spectroscopy.
