- 요약The emergence of "moir´e materials", heterostructures formed by twisting and stacking atomically thin layers, has inaugurated a new era for investigating correlated electronic systems. They o↵er unprecedented tunability over band structure, electronic interactions and topology. In this dissertation, I will present my works on the use of a specialized scanning probe microscope, a scanning single-electron transistor (SET), to locally investigate correlated states in a diverse array of moir´e systems. The SET probes the local compressibility and chemical potential of an electronic system with unparalleled resolution, enabling access to the delicate interaction-driven incompressible (insulating) phases and their phase transitions.In this dissertation, I will first summarize instrumentation e↵orts to set up two di↵erent scanning SET systems at Stanford University, which were used to carry out scientific projects described in this dissertation. I will then describe measurements on a selection of representative examples from two distinct classes of moir´e materials. In magic-angle twisted bilayer graphene, I explore both the interacting Chern and Hofstadter physics in the high magnetic field regime, as well as the enigmatic correlated insulators found at low magnetic fields. In a semiconductor moir´e heterobilayer WSe2/MoSe2, I describe measurements that reveal the coexistence of flat and dispersive moir´e bands that leads to intricate competitions between Hofstadter and unconventional charge-ordered states. In a twisted double bilayer WSe2 system, I discuss how the introduction of valley moir´e bands leads to new correlated ground states and charge excitations. Through these measurements, I will demonstrate how the local thermodynamic sensing capabilities of scanning SET synergize with the high tunability of moir´e materials in uncovering novel correlated electronic phases.
