الوصف: Moir\'e structures in van der Waals heterostructures lead to emergent phenomena including superconductivity in twisted bilayer graphene and optically accessible strongly-correlated electron states in transition metal dichalcogenide heterobilayers. Dual periodicity moir\'e structures (DPMS) formed in layered structures with more than two layers have been shown to lead to ferromagnetism and multiple secondary Dirac points in TBG. Whilst in principle it is possible to obtain DPMS in bilayers there has not been clear experimental evidence of this yet. In this paper we present signatures of DPMS in a twisted MoSe$_2$/WSe$_2$ bilayer revealed by resonance Raman spectroscopy. We observed zone-folded acoustic and optical phonon modes with a wavevector twice of the moir\'e wavevector, evidence of a dual periodicity moir\'e heterostructure. These results simultaneously open up opportunities for new emergent phenomena and an optical method for characterising DPMS in a wide range of van der Waals heterostructures.
