When two or more overlying sheets of graphene are slightly misaligned—twisted at certain angles relative to each other—they take on a plethora of exotic identities. Depending on the twist angle, the materials known as moiré quantum matter can suddenly generate their own magnetic fields, become superconductors with zero electrical resistance, or conversely, turn into perfect insulators.
