Kane-Mele模型的哈密顿量和能带图（不考虑Rashba自旋轨道耦合的情况，附Python/Matlab代码）

Kane-Mele模型原始论文为：Z2 Topological Order and the Quantum Spin Hall Effect、Quantum Spin Hall Effect in Graphene。

这里考虑没有Rashba自旋轨道耦合的情况，哈密顿量为：

此时的哈密顿量可以分解成两个独立的Haldane模型。Haldane模型可以参考这篇：Haldane模型哈密顿量与能带图（附Python代码）。

自旋向上和自旋向下对应的Haldane模型给出相反的霍尔电导，整体满足时间反演对称性。

蜂窝格子的编号为：

计算出的能带图为：

这里画出来的能带和Haldane模型对应参数的能带看起来完全一样，但这里的能带是二重简并的，且有不同的拓扑性质。这里的拓扑性质由Z2不变量来定义。

关于详细的讨论以及考虑Rashba自旋轨道耦合的情况，可以看原始论文或者相关综述。

实验上首先发现该量子自旋霍尔效应的是在Mercury Telluride Quantum Wells中，该体系由BHZ模型来描述，参考这篇：BHZ模型哈密顿量与能带图（附Python代码）。
