Two similar overlaid patterns create what are called moiré patterns, which may be related to superconductivity in some atom-thick materials

A mysterious form of superconductivity has been found in a twisted crystal, which could help researchers better understand how to make super-efficient electronics.

Superconductivity is a rare property that lets some materials conduct electricity with no resistance. We only know of materials that are superconductors at low temperatures or extreme pressures, but a very high or room-temperature superconductor could transform the world’s energy systems by allowing us to send limitless energy over vast distances.
