Abstract: Moiré materials constructed using the transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) bilayers have been used to simulate the Hubbard model with long range Coulomb interactions procuring the lattice Wigner crystal states at fractional fillings like n=2/3, 1/2, and 1/3. We study the gamma-valley TMD homobilayers which can give rise to the effective moire honeycomb lattices, as shown by recent ab-initio studies.
