Quantum Spin Hall and Quantum Anomalous Hall States Realized in Junction Quantum Wells

Quantum Spin Hall and Quantum Anomalous Hall States Realized in Junction Quantum Wells

Both quantum spin Hall and quantum anomalous Hall states are novel states of quantum matter with promising applications. We propose junction quantum wells comprising II-VI, III-V or IV semiconductors as a large class of new materials realizing the quantum spin Hall state. Especially, we find that the bulk band gap …
