The quantum anomalous Hall effect introduces a dissipationless edge current without an external magnetic field, offering opportunities for low-power electronics and a platform for harnessing quantum phenomena. Although this phenomenon has been observed in several materials, including magnetic-doped topological insulators, the topological antiferromagnet MnBi2Te4, multilayer graphene, and twisted 2D materials, the magnetic transition temperature remains low in these systems. Exploring novel materials with a non-zero Chern number and a magnetic phase at high temperatures is both crucial and challenging. Here, we propose an approach to induce nontrivial bands with nonzero Chern numbers by leveraging strong spin–orbit coupling in magnetic-doped transition metal dichalcogenides. We demonstrate that a doped state near the valence-band edge induces band crossing with the hybridized host band, leading to topologically non-trivial properties. Calculations for V-doped WSe2 and WS2 confirm this mechanism. The coexistence of magnetic order and nontrivial topology in these systems offers a promising platform for exploring the quantum anomalous Hall effect at high temperatures.
Over the last decades, condensed matter physics has been the playground for the realization of physical systems in which quantum effects persist over a wide range of energy and length scales.

Chiral anomaly in topological materials manifests as negative longitudinal magnetoresistance, yet the tunability and evolution of this effect remain elusive. Here we show that doped tellurium serves as a versatile platform to realize a giant negative longitudinal magnetoresistance that is highly tunable via the Fermi l...
