Through a systematic study of rhombohedral and rotationally faulted graphene bilayers and trilayers, we show that when the WSe₂ is in direct contact with the graphene, the exciton response is most sensitive to the large momentum rearrangement of the Fermi surface, and thus flavor orders. The wide-field imaging capability of optical probes allows us to obtain spatial maps of flavor orders with high throughput, and with broad temperature and device compatibility.</p>
