- Abstract: In superlattices of twisted semiconductor monolayers, tunable moir\'e
potentials emerge, trapping excitons into periodic arrays. In particular,
spatially separated interlayer excitons are subject to a deep potential
landscape and they exhibit a permanent dipole providing a unique opportunity to
study interacting bosonic lattices. Recent experiments have demonstrated
density-dependent transport properties of moir\'e excitons, which could play a
key role for technological applications. However, the intriguing interplay
between exciton-exciton interactions and moir\'e trapping has not been well
understood yet. In this work, we develop a microscopic theory of interacting
excitons in external potentials allowing us to tackle this highly challenging
problem. We find that interactions between moir\'e excitons lead to a
delocalization at intermediate densities and we show how this transition can be
tuned via twist angle and temperature. The delocalization is accompanied by a
modification of optical moir\'e resonances, which gradually merge into a single
free exciton peak. The predicted density-tunability of the supercell hopping
can be utilized to control the energy transport in moir\'e materials.
