Large gap Quantum Spin Hall Insulators of Hexagonal III-Bi monolayer

In the present work, we demonstrate that both GaBi3 and InBi3 monolayers are Quantum Spin Hall insulators. Here, the electronic band structures and edge states of the two novel monolayers are systematically investigated by first principle calculation. Our analysis of the band inversion and Z2 number...
