Quantum optics, spintronics and diffraction-free imaging with low loss are among the technologies that may benefit from recently predicted effects in twisted bilayer photonic structures. The work takes inspiration from a burgeoning field of condensed matter research—"twistronics," in which electronic behaviour can be dramatically altered by controlling the twist between layers of 2-D materials.
