Title: Quantum Twisting Microscopy of Moiré Flat Bands: A Theoretical Perspective
Abstract: Moiré materials with tunable flat bands provide an exceptional platform for realizing strongly correlated and topological phases. Achieving a detailed understanding of their electronic structure, however, remains a major challenge. The recently developed quantum twisting microscope introduces a new tunneling probe for van der Waals materials. In this talk, I will present a theoretical framework for both elastic and inelastic tunneling spectroscopy of moiré flat bands using the quantum twisting microscope. I will discuss how this technique can enable momentum-resolved measurements of electronic spectral functions, neutral collective excitations and superconducting gap structures in magic-angle twisted bilayer graphene.
Finding belonging and building legacy: UK celebrates first-generation Wildcats
By Ryan Girves
LEXINGTON, Ky. (Nov. 17, 2025) — When first-generation college students arrive at the University of Kentucky, they carry with them more than backpacks and class schedules. They bring the hopes of families, the weight of new beginnings and the courage to step into new spaces.
Promotion and Tenure Celebration Event Photos
Newly tenured and promoted faculty came together to celebrate, joined by the Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences.
The Champions Fund
Become a Champion and transform a Kentucky student's life
The Arts and Sciences Champions initiative is designed to support Kentucky students from start to finish by providing both financial and personal support. These scholars are high-achieving, first generation students with unmet financial need.
