We predict a quantum spin Hall effect (QSHE) in the ferromagnetic graphene under a magnetic field. Unlike the previous QSHE, this QSHE appears in the absence of any spin-orbit interaction, thus, arrived from a different physical origin. The…

Quantum Hall phases have recently emerged as a platform to investigate non-Hermitian topology in condensed-matter systems. This platform is particularly interesting due to its tunability, which allows to modify the properties and topology…

We report magnetotransport measurements on a single-layer graphene in pulsed magnetic fields up to $B$ = 53 T. With either electron- or hole-type charge carriers, the Hall resistance $R_{H}$ is quantized into $R_{H}$ = $(h/e^2)\nu ^{-1}$…
