Abstract
A device is disclosed, comprising: a first layer including a first molecular network having a first 2D lattice structure, a second layer including a second molecular network having a second 2D lattice structure, wherein the first layer and the second layer are arranged at a distance from each other such that the first and the second molecular network interact electronically via molecular orbital interactions, and a rotation device implemented to rotate the first layer relative to the second layer by a rotation angle, wherein an electrical resistance between the first molecular network and the second molecular network changes as a function of the rotation angle.
