The quantum anomalous Hall effect (QAHE) has recently been reported to emerge in magnetically-doped topological insulators. Although its general phenomenology is well established, the microscopic origin is far from being properly understood…

Quantum Spin Hall (QSH) insulators represent a quintessential example of a topological phase of matter, characterized by a conducting edge mode within a bulk energy gap. The pursuit of a tunable QSH state stands as a pivotal objective in…

Low-dimensional electronic systems have traditionally been obtained by electrostatically confining electrons, either in heterostructures or in intrinsically nanoscale materials such as single molecules, nanowires, and graphene. Recently, a…

Metal-to-insulator transitions (MITs) are a dramatic manifestation of strong electron correlations in solids1. The insulating phase can often be suppressed by quantum tuning, i.e. varying a nonthermal parameter such as chemical composi-…

We explore the emergence of topological phases in moir\'{e} MoTe$_2$/WSe$_2$ bilayer, highlighting the crucial role of spin-orbit coupling and Coulomb interactions at two holes per moir\'e unit cell \(v = 2\). Our analysis uncovers robust…

The emerging field of topology has brought device effects to a new level. Higher-order topological insulators (HOTIs) go beyond traditional descriptions of bulk-edge correspondence, broadening the understanding of topologically insulating…

The nature of a metal--insulator transition tuned by external gates in quantum Hall (QH) systems with point constrictions at integer bulk filling, as reported in recent experiments of Roddaro et al. [1], is addressed. We are particularly…

The exploration of topological phase transition (TPT) mechanisms constitutes a central theme in quantum materials research. Conventionally, transitions between Weyl semimetals (WSMs) and other topological states rely on the breaking of…

Magnetic topological insulators (MTI) constitute a novel class of materials where the topologically protected band structure coexists with long-range ferromagnetic order, which can lead to the breaking of time-reversal symmetry (TRS),…

Quantum spin Hall (QSH) materials are two-dimensional systems exhibiting insulating bulk and helical edge states simultaneously. A QSH insulator processes topologically non-trivial edge states protected by time-reversal symmetry, so that…

Based on density functional theory (DFT) calculations, we predict that a monolayer of OsCl$_3$---a layered material whose interlayer coupling is weaker than in graphite---possesses a quantum anomalous Hall (QAH) insulating phase generated…

We propose a tight-binding (TB) model, that includes spin-orbit coupling (SOC), to describe the electronic properties of methyl-substituted germanane (GeCH$_3$). This model gives an electronic spectrum in agreement with first principle…

Dynamical quantum phase transitions (DQPTs) represent a counterpart in non-equilibrium quantum time evolution of thermal phase transitions at equilibrium, where real time becomes analogous to a control parameter such as temperature. In…

Topological insulators are a broad class of unconventional materials that are insulating in the interior but conduct along the edges. This edge transport is topologically protected and dissipationless. Until recently, all existing…

Spin-polarized conducting edge currents counterpropagate in quantum spin Hall (QSH) insulators and are protected against disorder-driven localizations by the time-reversal symmetry. Using these spin-currents for device applications require…

The field of topological insulators (TIs) is rapidly growing. Concerning possible applications, the search for materials with an easily controllable TI phase is a key issue. The quantum spin Hall effect, characterized by a single pair of…

We study the possibility of transferring fermions from a trivial system as particle source to an empty system but at topological phase as a mold for casting a stable topological insulator dynamically. We show that this can be realized by a…

We study quantum phase transitions in Bose-Fermi mixtures driven by interspecies interaction in the quantum Hall regime. In the absence of such an interaction, the bosons and fermions form their respective fractional quantum Hall (FQH)…

Quantum spin Hall (QSH) insulators are materials that feature an insulating bulk and host edge states protected by time-reversal symmetry. The helical locking of spin and momentum in these states suppresses backscattering of charge…

The nature of a metal-insulator transition tuned by external gates in quantum Hall (QH) systems with point constrictions, as reported in recent experiments of Roddaro et al [1], is examined. We attribute this phenomenon to a splitting of…
