First-principle and model simulations show that emergent spin polarization modifies dimerization between junction states, forming a magnetic Su-Schrieffer-Heeger mechanism. In the magnetic state, the bulk Z₂ topology depends solely on the width of the narrow armchair segment, and the bulk energy band gap increases by an order of magnitude relative to the nonmagnetic state.Read more
