The quantum anomalous Hall (QAH) effect has recently been realized in thin films of intrinsic magnetic topological insulators (IMTIs) like MnBi$_2$Te$_4$. Here we point out that that the QAH gaps of these IMTIs can be optimized, and that…
Recent years have seen multiple high-throughput studies reveal an immense number of topological materials through use of symmetry indicators. Despite this success, three-dimensional topological insulators (TI) admitting a band-gap larger…
The anomalous Hall effect due to the surface conduction band of 3D topological insulators with an out-of-plane magnetization is \textit{always} dominated by an intrinsic topological term of the order of the conductivity quantum. We…
Topological insulators are materials with a bulk excitation gap generated by the spin orbit interaction, and which are different from conventional insulators. This distinction is characterized by Z_2 topological invariants, which…
Topological insulators (TI) realize a novel state of quantum matter that are distinguished by topological invariants of bulk band structure rather than spontaneously broken symmetries. A number of exotic quantum phenomena have been…
Quantum spin Hall (QSH) insulators have gapless topological edge states inside the bulk band gap, which can serve as dissipationless spin current channels protected by the time-reversal symmetry. The major challenge currently is to find…
The non-trivial topology of the three-dimensional (3D) topological insulator (TI) dictates the appearance of gapless Dirac surface states. Intriguingly, when a 3D TI is made into a nanowire, a gap opens at the Dirac point due to the quantum…
The search for topologically non-trivial states of matter has become an important goal for condensed matter physics. Here, we give a theoretical introduction to the quantum anomalous Hall (QAH) effect based on magnetic topological…
When electrons are subject to a large external magnetic field, the conventional charge quantum Hall effect \cite{Klitzing,Tsui} dictates that an electronic excitation gap is generated in the sample bulk, but metallic conduction is permitted…
In investigating the topological electronic structures of monolayer $\alpha$-phase group V elements, we uncover a new topological phase, which is invisible in the symmetry-based topological quantum chemistry (TQC) as well as symmetry…
Quantum spin Hall insulators, or synonymously known as 2D topological insulators, are crucial 2D systems hosting topologically protected edge states. The working temperature of this topological quantum phase is dictated by the inverted…
We introduce a system of stacked two-dimensional electron and hole gas layers with Rashba spin orbit interaction and show that the tunnel coupling between the layers induces a strong three- dimensional (3D) topological insulator phase. At…
Quantum spin Hall insulators are a class of topological materials that has been extensively studied during the past decade. One of their distinctive features is the presence of a finite band gap in the bulk and gapless, topologically…
By employing angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy combined with first-principles calculations, we performed a systematic investigation on the electronic structure of LaBi, which exhibits extremely large magnetoresistance (XMR), and is…
We report the discovery of several classes of novel topological insulators (TIs) with hybrid-order boundary states generated from the first-order TIs with additional crystalline symmetries. Unlike the current studies on hybrid-order TIs…
Three-dimensional topological insulators (3D-TIs) possess a specific topological order of electronic bands, resulting in gapless surface states via bulk-edge correspondence. Exotic phenomena have been realized in ferromagnetic TIs, such as…
We investigate topological states of two-dimensional (2D) triangular lattices with multi-orbitals. Tight-binding model calculations of a 2D triangular lattice based on $\emph{p}_{x}$ and \emph{p}_{y} orbitals exhibit very interesting doubly…
The newly discovered topological crystalline insulators (TCIs) harbor a complex band structure involving multiple Dirac cones. These materials are potentially highly tunable by external electric field, temperature or strain and could find…
The quantum spin Hall insulators predicted ten years ago and now experimentally observed are instrumental for a breakthrough in nanoelectronics due to non-dissipative spin-polarized electron transport through their edges. For this transport…
We have performed a computational screening of topological two-dimensional (2D) materials from the Computational 2D Materials Database (C2DB) employing density functional theory. A full \textit{ab initio} scheme for calculating hybrid…
