The use of moiré materials for spintronic applications, in which the spin of the electrons, rather than their charge, is used to carry information, is only just beginning to be explored. Two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides are particularly promising because they exhibit a substantial and gate-tunable spin–orbit torque, which can be exploited to fabricate devices with fast writing speed and enhanced stability. Writing in Advanced Materials, Xiaorong Liang and collaborators show that a moiré superlattice can effectively tune the spin–orbit torque in a ferromagnetic heterostructure. The researchers showed that changing the twist angle in a heterostructure comprising a twisted WS2/WS2 bilayer and a CoFe/Pt thin film leads to a substantial enhancement of up to 44.5% of the spin–orbit torque efficiency, while also increasing its gate tunability. This work highlights moiré physics as a new way to enhance the performance of spintronic devices.
