We find different stripe-like superlattice modulations on grown FeTe film with different misorientation angles with respect to NbSe2 substrate. We show that these stripe-like superlattice modulations can be understood as moiré pattern forming between FeTe film and NbSe2 substrate. Our results indicate that the interface between FeTe and NbSe2 is atomically sharp. By STM-AFM combined measurement, we suggest that the moiré superlattice modulations have an electronic origin when the misorientation angle is relatively small (≤ 3°) and have structural relaxation when the misorientation angle is relatively large (≥ 10°).
