Spin valley and giant quantum spin Hall gap of hydrofluorinated bismuth nanosheet

Abstract Spin-valley and electronic band topological properties have been extensively explored in quantum material science, yet their coexistence has rarely been realized in stoichiometric two-dimensional (2D) materials. We theoretically predict the quantum spin Hall effect (QSHE) in the hydrofluori...
