Quantum Anomalous Hall Effect in $d$-Electron Kagome Systems: Chern Insulating States from Transverse Spin-Orbit Coupling

Imam Makhfudz, Mikhail Cherkasskii, Mohammad Alipourzadeh +5

The possibility of quantum anomalous Hall effect (QAHE) in two-dimensional kagome systems with $d$-orbital electrons is studied within a multi-orbital tight-binding model. We conce…
