Phonon Polaritons in Twisted Double-Layers of Hyperbolic van der Waals Crystals

Controlling the twist angle between two stacked van der Waals (vdW) crystals is a powerful approach for tuning their electronic and photonic properties. Hyperbolic media have recently attracted much attention due to their ability to tailor electromagnetic waves at the subwavelength-scale which, however, usually requires complex patterning procedures. Here, we demonstrate a lithography-free approach for manipulating the hyperbolicity by...
