Geometry-Controlled Magnetic and Electronic Landscapes in Anisotropic van der Waals Materials

Electronic structure in van der Waals materials is commonly engineered through composition, strain, electrostatic gating and heterostructure assembly.

Electronic structure in van der Waals materials is commonly engineered through composition, strain, electrostatic gating and heterostructure assembly. Here we introduce geometronics, a concept in which substrate geometry locally reorients an anisotropic crystal, transforming…
