Quantum anomalous Hall effect in M₂X₃honeycomb Kagome lattice

The quantum anomalous Hall (QAH) effect has recently drawn great attention in spintronics with extraordinary property of chiral edge states without dissipation in absence of magnetic field. In M₂X₃honeycomb Kagome lattice, numerous two-dimensional materials are predicted to be QAH insulators including metal oxides/sulfides and metal organic lattice. In this work, we proposed a general model to explain the mechanism of Dirac half metal with absence of spin orbital coupling and the nontrivial topological property with spin orbital coupling, which could be induced by combination of electron counting rule, crystal field effect anddxz,dyzorbitals hybridization. Based on the mechanism, we further predict that triphenyl-metal lattice M₂(C₆H₄)₃(M= V, Nb, Ta) are all QAH insulators with high Curie temperature and large nontrivial band gap for triphenyl-Nb and triphenyl-Ta lattice.
