Two-dimensional graphene-like Xenes as potential topological materials

Since the discovery of quantum spin Hall (QSH) effect in graphene, searching for two-dimensional (2D) QSH materials with larger bulk gap has been an active field in the past decade. As cousins of graphene, the elemental graphene-like 2D materials (Xenes, X refers to group-IV, group-V, or group-VI el...
