Abstract

Itinerant spin polaron and metallic ferromagnetism are theoretically predicted in the Mott insulator in semiconductor moiré superlattices doped below and above half filling of the narrow moiré band, respectively. The existence of a spin polaron can be directly identified from the kink in the dependence of the charge gap on the magnetic field.
