This paper investigates the validity of the adiabatic approximation in twisted homobilayer transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) moiré superlattices and its role in the emergence of Aharonov-Casher (AC) bands. The adiabatic approximation replaces the layer spinor with a non-uniform periodic effective magnetic field, leading to a cancellation between the zero-point kinetic energy and effective Zeeman energy, which results in ideal quantum geometry. The authors critically examine the validity of this approximation and identify parameter regimes where AC bands emerge. They show that the adiabatic approximation is accurate for a wide range of parameters, including those realized in experiments. While the cancellation leading to AC bands is generally not possible beyond the leading Fourier harmonic, the leading harmonic is the dominant term in the Fourier expansions of the zero-point kinetic energy and Zeeman energy. As a result, the leading harmonic expansion accurately captures the trend of the bandwidth and quantum geometry, though it may fail to quantitatively reproduce more detailed information about the bands such as the Berry curvature distribution. The paper also compares the adiabatic approximation with the continuum model in terms of band structure, bandwidth, quantum geometry, Berry curvature distribution, and full-band charge density distribution. It shows that the adiabatic approximation accurately reproduces the topological phases of higher energy bands as a function of twist angle and points to a transition between Landau-level-like and Haldane-model-like band structures. The authors conclude that the adiabatic approximation is a valid and accurate method for studying twisted homobilayer TMDs, and that it provides a useful framework for understanding the quantum geometry and topological properties of these systems. The paper also discusses the potential for engineering even-denominator fractional Chern insulating (FCI) states in flat bands resembling the n = 1 Landau level of a 2D electron gas.This paper investigates the validity of the adiabatic approximation in twisted homobilayer transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) moiré superlattices and its role in the emergence of Aharonov-Casher (AC) bands.
