Two-dimensional carbon topological insulators superior to graphene
Graphene was the first material predicted to realize a topological insulator (TI), but unfortunately the gap is unobservably small due to carbon's weak spin-orbital coupling (SOC). Based on first-principles calculations, we propose a stable sp-sp2 hybrid carbon network as a graphene analog whos...
