Figure S1. Band structures of each twisted Gr/MoS2 bilayer calculated using PBE functional with DFT-D2 method to include vdW interactions, as implemented in VASP. The blue dots correspond to the energy bands from the graphene sheet.

Figure S2. Schematic plot of the skewed supercell in a hexagonal lattice. The skewed angle θ1 or θ2 is defined as the angle between the basis vector (na1+ma2) and the

 3m  zigzag direction, which can be expressed as θ1 = tan −1   . A pair of such  2n + m  skewed supercell with either exact or close matching of their lateral periodicity can become commensurate by rotating one relative to the other. The formed twisted bilayer sheet have a rotation angle of θ = θ1−θ2.

Figure S3. Band gap variation of monolayer MoS2 with the applied strain, as calculated using the LDA functional.

Figure S4. Atomic structures of the twisted bilayer MoS2 with S/S stacking order. The electronic properties are almost identical to those of the corresponding S/Mo BL-MoS2 with the same rotation angle.
