The quantum anomalous Hall (QAH) insulator is a topological quantum state with quantized Hall resistance and zero longitudinal resistance in the absence of an external magnetic field. The QAH insulator carries spin-polarized…
We theoretically show that the three-dimensional (3D) topological insulator (TI)/thin-film ferromagnetic metal (FMM) bilayer structure is possible to be a quantum anomalous Hall (QAH) insulator with a wide global band gap. Studying the band…
Based on first-principle calculations and $k\cdot p$ model analysis, we show that the quantum anomalous Hall (QAH) insulating phase can be realized in the functionalized hematite (or $\alpha$-Fe$_2$O$_3$) nanosheet and the obtained…
The recently introduced classification of two-dimensional insulators in terms of topological crystalline invariants has been applied so far to "obstructed" atomic insulators characterized by a mismatch between the centers of the electronic…
The search for large gap quantum spin Hall (QSH) and quantum anomalous Hall (QAH) insulators is important both for fundamental and practical interests. The degenerate multi-orbitals $p_x,p_y$ in honeycomb lattice provides a paradigm for QSH…
The interplay between spontaneous symmetry breaking and topology can result in exotic quantum states of matter. A celebrated example is the quantum anomalous Hall (QAH) state, which exhibits an integer quantum Hall effect at zero magnetic…
Quantum spin Hall effect is usually realized in two-dimensional materials with time-reversal symmetry, but whether it can be realized without symmetry protection remains unexplored. Here, we propose type-II quantum spin Hall insulator with…
We demonstrate via exact diagonalization that AA-stacked TMD homobilayers host fractional quantum anomalous Hall (FQAH) states with fractionally quantized Hall conductance at fractional fillings $n=\frac{1}{3},\, \frac{2}{3}$ and zero…
The interaction-driven quantum anomalous Hall (QAH) insulator has been sought for a long time in a Dirac semimetal with linear band touching points at the Fermi level. By combining exact diagonalization, density matrix renormalization…
The recent production of synthetic magnetic fields acting on electroneutral particles, like atoms or photons, has boosted the interest in the quantum Hall physics of bosons. Adding pseudospin-1/2 to the bosons greatly enriches the scenario,…
We study an interacting spinless quadratic band touching model that realizes a topological Mott insulating state. We quench the interaction from a value corresponding to the nematic insulator to that of the quantum anomalous Hall (QAH)…
The quantum anomalous Hall (QAH) effect - a macroscopic manifestation of chiral band topology at zero magnetic field - has only been experimentally realized by magnetic doping of topological insulators (1 - 3) and delicate design of Moire…
We report a theoretical prediction of a new class of bulk and intrinsic quantum Anomalous Hall (QAH) insulators La$X$ ($X$=Br, Cl, and I) via relativistic first-principle calculations. We find that these systems are innate long-ranged…
We show that the Quantum Spin Hall Effect, a state of matter with topological properties distinct from conventional insulators, can be realized in HgTe/CdTe semiconductor quantum wells. By varying the thickness of the quantum well, the…
Spin-orbit coupling (SOC) is thought to be necessary in realizing quantum anomalous Hall (QAH) insulators in magnetic materials. In this Letter, we propose an exciton-condensation mechanism to realize QAH effect in collinear magnets with…
We analyze the detailed structure of topological edge mode protection occuring in hexagonal quantum spin Hall (QSH) materials. We focus on bismuthene, antimonene, and arsenene on a SiC substrate, which, due to their large bulk gap, may…
Using tight-binding models and first-principles calculations, we demonstrate the possibility to achieve a quantum anomalous Hall (QAH) phase on a two-dimensional square lattice, which can be realized in monolayers of double perovskites. We…
We investigate an unconventional topological phase transition that occurs in quantum spin Hall (QSH) systems when applying an external in-plane magnetic field. We show that this transition between QSH and trivial insulator phases is…
The quantum spin Hall (QSH) state is a genuinely new state of matter characterized by a non-trivial topology of its band structure. Its key feature is conducting edge channels whose spin polarization has potential for spintronic and quantum…
