Time-reversal symmetry breaking is the basic physics concept underpinning many magnetic topological phenomena such as the anomalous Hall effect (AHE) and its quantized variant. The AHE has been primarily accompanied by a ferromagnetic…

It is commonly believed that in typical collinear antiferromagnets, with no net magnetization, the energy bands are spin-(Kramers-degenerate. The opposite case is usually associated with a global time-reversal symmetry breaking (e.g., via…
