Popis: The quantum spin Hall effect disappears at high magnetic fields when the band inversion is lifted. The authors demonstrate that in contrast, in disordered samples, counter-propagating topological and quantum Hall edge channels prevent the detection of the trivial gap, explaining a previous observation.
