An idea rooted in ‘twistronics’ yields an electrifying, ‘dizzying’ outcome

Meme-Argawal-

Researchers led by Ritesh Agarwal of the School of Engineering and Applied Science and Gene Mele of the School of Arts & Sciences uncovered how twisting multiple layers of a material can generate a mysterious sideways deflection of moving electrons—analogous to the Coriolis effect seen in ocean currents—unlocking new possibilities for controlling light and electrons in quantum materials.
