Physical properties of two-dimensional van der Waals (vdWs) structures depend sensitively on both stacking orders and interlayer interactions. Yet, in most cases studied to date, the interlayer interaction is considered to be a "static" property of the vdWs structures. Here we demonstrate that applying a scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) tip pulse on twisted bilayer graphene (TBG) can induce sub-Ångstrom fluctuations of the interlayer separation in the TBG, which are equivalent to dynamic vertical external pressure of about 10 GPa on the TBG. The sub-Ångstrom fluctuations of the interlayer separation result in large oscillations of the energy separations between two van Hove singularities (VHSs) in the TBG. The period of the oscillations of the VHSs spacing is extremely long, about 500-1000 sec, attributing to tip-induced local stress in the atomic-thick TBG. Our result provides an efficient method to tune and measure the physical properties of the vdWs structures dynamically.
