Spontaneous curvature in two-dimensional van der Waals heterostructures by Yuxiang Gao, Fenglin Deng, Ri He, Zhicheng Zhong

“…In this paper, we predict that 2D interfaces undergo “spontaneous curvature”, which means when two flat 2D layers approach each other, they inevitably experience out-of-plane curvature. Based on deep-learning-assisted large-scale molecular dynamics simulations, we observe significant out-of-plane displacements up to 3.8 Å in graphene/BN bilayers induced by curvature, producing a stable hexagonal moiré pattern, which agrees well with experimentally observations. …”
