A two-dimensional (2D) topological insulator (TI) exhibits the quantum spin Hall (QSH) effect, in which topologically protected spin-polarized conducting channels exist at the sample edges. Experimental signatures of the QSH effect have…

Higher-order topological insulators (HOTIs) are described by symmetric exponentially decayed Wannier functions at some $necessary$ unoccupied Wyckoff positions and classified as obstructed atomic insulators (OAIs) in the topological quantum…

We implement silicon quantum dot devices with two layers of gate electrodes using a self-alignment technique, which allows for ultra-small gate lengths and intrinsically perfect layer-to-layer alignment. In a double quantum dot system, we…

Quantum spin-hall insulator (QSHI) processes nontrivial topology. We notice that the electronic structures of some particular QSHIs are favorable for realization of excitonic insulators (EIs). Using first-principles many-body perturbation…

A two-dimensional topological insulator (2DTI) is guaranteed to have a helical 1D edge mode in which spin is locked to momentum, producing the quantum spin Hall effect and prohibiting elastic backscattering at zero magnetic field. No…

Operating Si quantum dot (QD) arrays requires homogeneous and ultra-dense structures with aggressive gate pitch. Such a density is necessary to separately control the QDs chemical potential (i.e. charge occupation of each QD) from the…

The coexistence of ferroelectric and topological orders in two-dimensional (2D) atomic crystals allows non-volatile and switchable quantum spin Hall states. Here we offer a general design principle for 2D bilayer heterostructures that can…
