Novel two-dimensional topological insulators from first principles materials screening — •Thomas Olsen and Kristian Thygesen — Technical University of Denmark

We have applied first principles calculations to find new stable two-dimensional materials with non-trivial band topology. The novel materials include more than 10 quantum spin Hall insulators, quantum anomalous Hall insulators and topological crystalline insulators protected by mirror symmetry. We also discuss the dual topological nature of the band structure in the presence of both time-reversal and mirror symmetry and show that odd mirror Chern numbers always imply a quantum spin Hall effect.
