Kavli Affiliate: Shenghan Jiang | First 5 Authors: Yixin Ma, Shenghan Jiang, Chao Xu, , | Summary: The quantum spin hall (QSH) phase, also known as the two-dimensional topological insulator, hosts helical edge modes protected by time-reversal symmetry. While first proposed as a band insulator, this phase can also be realized in strongly-correlated systems, where […]
