First TIMES-linked result are here: from Moiré physics to ultrafast photonics

TIMES Project begins to deliver results and is now starting to bear fruit!

We are proud to share some of the very first scientific outcomes with our community. These initial results mark an important milestone, showing how collaborative research within TIMES is opening new pathways in the study of ultrafast phenomena in quantum materials.

Layered two-dimensional (2D) materials are reshaping the way scientists understand and harness light–matter interactions. Their unique optical and electronic properties, combined with the ability to build vertical heterostructures and manipulate spin–valley degrees of freedom, have opened unprecedented opportunities for innovation.

The emergence of moiré physics in twisted heterostructures has unlocked new ways to tailor band structures, while the integration of 2D materials into hybrid photonic platforms has revealed a wealth of ultrafast phenomena. This perspective highlights the latest advances in the field, positioning 2D materials as a transformative foundation for next-generation optoelectronic and photonic technologies.
