Abstract: Developing new methods to synthesize new materials is important for condensed matter physics. With the development of nanotechnology, constructing new material structures using nanoscale building blocks as small as a molecule or atom becomes possible. Precisely controlling the composition and structure of these nanoscale building blocks brings us materials with completely new electronic, mechanical, optical properties. Two-dimensional (2D) material is one of the important platforms for these novel systems. Although 2D materials such as graphene or TMDs are promised to carry remarkable electronic performance, the experimental reality is that they are highly sensitive to disorder from the environment. I will present the techniques I developed to controllably assemble 2D materials layer by layer with ultraclean interfaces[1]. In addition, these new techniques allow us to ‘mix and match’ different 2D materials together layer by layer to form heterostructures, with controlling their positions, thickness and lattice twist angles to achieve new material properties. I will talk about how to tune these nobs to achieve the bandstructure engineering [2] at the interfaces between the different atomic planes and the new physics [3] revealed by these structures. I will conclude my talk with our recent results on twisted bilayer TMDs as a model system to study interaction-driven phenomena in flat bands with dynamically tunable interactions[4].
