Vertically stacking two-dimensional (2D) materials with small azimuthal deviation or lattice mismatch generate distinctive global structural periodicity and symmetry, revealed as the moiré superlattices (MSLs). Manipulating the interlayer twist angle enables the modification of the electronic structure of 2D materials to explore the advanced applications. Although extraordinary progress has been achieved in the unique structure and emergent properties of MSLs, the investigation of the catalytic applications of MSLs materials is still in its infancy. It is therefore very urgent to summarize the advanced development of MSLs in the field of catalysis. In this review, we firstly summarize the advanced fabrication and high-resolution characterization techniques of the MSLs materials, as well as their novel properties related to catalysis represented by electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). Then, all the MSLs materials such as MoS₂, WS₂, and Ru serving as electrocatalysts for HER are further reviewed in detail. Finally, we outline the current challenges as well as the experimental and theoretical strategies to advance the development of function-oriented MSLs materials for catalysis. This review aims to provide profound insight into the wide applications of this novel material platform in catalytic field.

垂直堆叠具有小方位偏差或晶格失配的二维 (2D) 材料会产生独特的全局结构周期性和对称性，表现为莫尔超晶格 (MSL)。操纵层间扭曲角可以改变二维材料的电子结构，从而探索更高级的应用。尽管在 MSLs 的独特结构和涌现性能方面取得了非凡的进展，但对 MSLs 材料催化应用的研究仍处于起步阶段。因此，总结 MSLs 在催化领域的先进发展是非常紧迫的。在这篇综述中，我们首先总结了 MSLs 材料的先进制造和高分辨率表征技术，以及它们与以电催化析氢反应 (HER) 为代表的催化相关的新特性。然后，所有的 MSLs 材料，如 MoS₂、WS ₂和用作 HER 电催化剂的 Ru 进一步详细回顾。最后，我们概述了当前的挑战以及推进面向功能的 MSLs 催化材料发展的实验和理论策略。本综述旨在深入了解这种新型材料平台在催化领域的广泛应用。
