The Chern number is often used to distinguish different topological phases of matter in two-dimensional electron systems. A fast and efficient coupling-matrix method is designed to calculate the Chern number in finite...

The quantum spin Hall (QSH) effect is considered to be unstable to perturbations violating the time-reversal (TR) symmetry. We review some recent developments in the search of the QSH effect in the absence of the ...

The electric-pulse-induced resistive switching effect is studied for Tio.s5Cro.15Ox (TCO) films grown on Ir-Si substrates by pulsed laser deposition. Such a TCO device exhibits bipolar switching behaviour with an el...
