説明:

Controlling the balance between piezoelectric and flexoelectric effects is crucial for tailoring the electromechanical responses of a material. In twisted graphene, it is found that the electromechanical response near the domain walls (DWs) is dominated by either the flexoelectric effect as in twisted bilayer graphene (tBLG), or the piezoelectric effect as in twisted monolayer- bilayer graphene (tMBG). The codominance of both effects in a single system is rare. Here, utilizing lateral piezoresponse force microscopy (LPFM), we show piezoelectric and flexoelectric effects can coexist and are equally important in twisted double bilayer graphene (tDBG), termed as piezo- flexoelectric effect. Unlike tBLG and tMBG, distinctive two-step LPFM spatial profiles are captured across the moiré DWs of tDBG. By decomposing the LPFM signal into axisymmetric and antisymmetric components, we find that the angular dependence of both components satisfies sinusoidal relations. The conclusion is further supported by continuum mechanics simulations. Our results demonstrate that the stacking configuration serves as a powerful tuning knob for modulating the electromechanical responses of twisted van der Waals
