The quantum anomalous Hall effect has recently been observed experimentally in thin films of Cr doped (Bi,Sb)$_2$Te$_3$ at a low temperature ($sim$ 30mK). In this work, we propose realizing the quantum anomalous Hall effect in more conventional diluted magnetic semiconductors with doped InAs/GaSb type II quantum wells. Based on a four band model, we find an enhancement of the Curie temperature of ferromagnetism due to band edge singularities in the inverted regime of InAs/GaSb quantum wells. Below the Curie temperature, the quantum anomalous Hall effect is confirmed by the direct calculation of Hall conductance. The parameter regime for the quantum anomalous Hall phase is identified based on the eight-band Kane model. The high sample quality and strong exchange coupling make magnetically doped InAs/GaSb quantum wells good candidates for realizing the quantum anomalous Hall insulator at a high temperature.

Magnetotransport measurements are presented on paramagnetic (Hg,Mn)Te quantum wells (QWs) with an inverted band structure. Gate-voltage controlled density dependent measurements reveal an unusual behavior in the transition regime from n- to p-type co nductance: A very small magnetic field of approximately 70 mT is sufficient to induce a transition into the nu = -1 quantum Hall state, which extends up to at least 10 Tesla. The onset field value remains constant for a unexpectedly wide gate-voltage range. Based on temperature and angle-dependent magnetic field measurements we show that the unusual behavior results from the realization of the quantum anomalous Hall state in these magnetically doped QWs.
We observe the magnetic oscillation of electric conductance in the two-dimensional InAs/GaSb quantum spin Hall insulator. Its insulating bulk origin is unambiguously demonstrated by the antiphase oscillations of the conductance and the resistance. Ch aracteristically, the in-gap oscillation frequency is higher than the Shubnikov-de Haas oscillation close to the conduction band edge in the metallic regime. The temperature dependence shows both thermal activation and smearing effects, which cannot be described by the Lifshitz-Kosevich theory. A two-band Bernevig-Hughes-Zhang model with a large quasiparticle self-energy in the insulating regime is proposed to capture the main properties of the in-gap oscillations.
We report magneto-transport studies of InAs/GaSb bilayer quantum wells in a regime where the interlayer tunneling between the electron and hole gases is suppressed. When the chemical potential is tuned close to the charge neutrality point, we observe anomalous quantum oscillations that are inversely periodic in magnetic field and that have an extremely high frequency despite the highly insulating regime where they are observed. The seemingly contradictory coexistence of a high sheet resistance and high frequency quantum oscillations in the charge neutrality regime cannot be understood within the single-particle picture. We propose an interpretation that attributes our experimental observation to the Coulomb drag between the electron and hole gases, thus providing strong evidence of the significance of Coulomb interaction in this topological insulator.

The observation of the anomalous quantum Hall effect in exfoliated graphene flakes triggered an explosion of interest in graphene. It was however not observed in high quality epitaxial graphene multilayers grown on silicon carbide substrates. The qua ntum Hall effect is shown on epitaxial graphene monolayers that were deliberately grown over substrate steps and subjected to harsh processing procedures, demonstrating the robustness of the epitaxial graphene monolayers and the immunity of their transport properties to temperature, contamination and substrate imperfections. The mobility of the monolayer C-face sample is 19,000 cm^2/Vs. This is an important step towards the realization of epitaxial graphene based electronics.
Transport measurements in inverted InAs/GaSb quantum wells reveal a giant spin-orbit splitting of the energy bands close to the hybridization gap. The splitting results from the interplay of electron-hole mixing and spin-orbit coupling, and can excee d the hybridization gap. We experimentally investigate the band splitting as a function of top gate voltage for both electron-like and hole-like states. Unlike conventional, noninverted two-dimensional electron gases, the Fermi energy in InAs/GaSb can cross a single spin-resolved band, resulting in full spin-orbit polarization. In the fully polarized regime we observe exotic transport phenomena such as quantum Hall plateaus evolving in $e^2/h$ steps and a non-trivial Berry phase.
