Access through your institution Buy or subscribe _Science_ http://doi.org/xks (2014) Quantum spin Hall insulators form a class of materials that are insulating in the bulk, but have
conducting edge states. As topological protection prevents backscattering in such states, spin and charge transport should occur without dissipation, which could be used to create low-power
devices. Xiaofeng Qian and co-workers have now proposed a transistor that operates by switching the topological behaviour of these materials on and off. This is a preview of subscription
