Optical properties, plasmons, and orbital Skyrme textures in twisted TMDs
Lorenzo Cavicchi, Koen J. A. Reijnders, Mikhail I. Katsnelson +1
In the long-wavelength limit, Bloch-band Berry curvature has no effect on the bulk plasmons of a two-dimensional electron system. In this Letter we show instead that bulk plasmons…
Recognizing molecular chirality via twisted 2D materials
Lorenzo Cavicchi, Mayra Peralta, Álvaro Moreno +6
Chirality pervades natural processes from the atomic to the cosmic scales, crucially impacting molecular chemistry and pharmaceutics. Traditional chirality sensing methods face cha…
Twisted bilayer graphene for enantiomeric sensing of chiral molecules
Álvaro Moreno, Lorenzo Cavicchi, Xia Wang +8
Selective sensing of chiral molecules is a key aspect in fields spanning biology, chemistry, and pharmacology. However, conventional optical methods, such as circular dichroism (CD…
Heat-charge separation in a hybrid superconducting quantum Hall setup
Carlo Panu, Fabio Taddei, Marco Polini +1
Separating heat from charge in a material is an extremely challenging task since they are transported by the very same carriers, i.e. electrons or holes. In this Letter we show tha…
Giant chirality-induced spin polarization in twisted transition metal dichalcogenides
Guido Menichetti, Lorenzo Cavicchi, Leonardo Lucchesi +6
Chirality-induced spin selectivity (CISS) is an effect that has recently attracted a great deal of attention in chiral chemistry and that remains to be understood. In the CISS effe…
Theory of intrinsic acoustic plasmons in twisted bilayer graphene
Lorenzo Cavicchi, Iacopo Torre, Pablo Jarillo-Herrero +2
We present a theoretical study of the intrinsic plasmonic properties of twisted bilayer graphene (TBG) as a function of the twist angle (and other microscopic parameters such a…
