英文摘要 | We study the electronic band, density distribution, and transport property for a hgte/cdte quantum well hall bar with finite-width in the presence of a transverse electric field. it is found that the electric field can lead to a topological phase transition which controls edge state properties. interestingly, the chirality of edge states can be modified under electric field, and a sufficient high field can remove the spectrum gap induced by the coupling between the edge states in a narrow hall bar, restoring quantum spin-hall effect. these findings may provide a fundamental understanding of topological edge states.
