 abstract = {We report a theoretical prediction of a new class of bulk and intrinsic
quantum anomalous Hall (QAH) insulators LaX (X=Br, Cl, and I) via
relativistic first-principles calculations. We find that these systems
are innate long-ranged ferromagnets which, with the help of intrinsic
spin-orbit coupling, become QAH insulators. A low-energy multiband
tight-binding model is developed to understand the origin of the QAH
effect. Finally, integer Chern number is obtained via Berry phase
computation for each two-dimensional plane. These materials have the
added benefit of a sizable band gap of as large as similar to 25 meV,
with the flexibility of enhancing it to above 75 meV via strain
engineering. The synthesis of LaX materials will provide the
impurity-free single crystals and thin-film QAH insulators for versatile
experiments and functionalities.},
