Zusammenfassung:Stacking transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) to form moir\'e superlattices has provided exciting opportunities to explore many-body correlation phenomena of the moir\'e trapped carriers. TMDs bilayers, on the other hand, host long-lived interlayer exciton (IX), an elementary excitation of long spin-valley lifetime that can be optically or electrically injected. Here we find that, through the Coulomb exchange between mobile IXs and carriers, the IX bath can mediate both Heisenberg and Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya type spin interactions between moir\'e trapped carriers, controllable by exciton density and exciton spin current respectively. We show the strong Heisenberg interaction, and the extraordinarily long-ranged Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction here can jointly establish robust spin spiral magnetic orders in Mott-Wigner crystal states at various filling factors, with spiral direction controlled by exciton current.
