“…However, these two angles still possess large enough values of figure of merit, which are estimated to be 1.32 and 1.08 (i.e., ZT > 1) at 200 K. The observed maximum value of ZT is comparatively larger than that of previously reported vdW heterostructures such as 2.8 (graphene/MoS 2 ) and 3.5 (MoS 2 /MoSe 2 ), etc. − Also, a graphene-based 2D TI nanoribbon hosts a maximum zT value of 3, which is lower than that of the observed zT in the designed moiré superlattices . Besides, the nontwisted (0°) bilayer exhibits a maximum zT value of ∼6 . Though the 0° bilayer presents a larger value of zT than moiré superlattices, this behavior is observed at the higher energy region away from the Fermi level due to its metallic nature.…”
