Determination of the Spin Axis in Quantum Spin Hall Insulator Candidate Monolayer WTe_{2}

Evidence for the quantum spin Hall effect (QSHE) has been reported in several experimental systems, in the form of edge conductance approaching a quantized value at zero magnetic field. However, another fundamental feature of the QSHE, that of spin-momentum locking in the edge channel, has not been...
