Abstract
We demonstrate that (001) grown Cd3As2 thin films with a
superlattice-patterned gate can potentially realize the moir\'e
Bernevig-Hughes-Zhang (BHZ) model. Our calculations identify the
parameterization region necessary to achieve topological flat mini-bands with a
C4z symmetric and a C6z symmetric potential. Additionally, we show that a
spin-polarized state can serve as the minimal platform for hosting the moir\'e
induced quantum anomalous Hall effect, supported by Hartree Fock interaction
kernel analysis and self-consistent mean field calculations.
