abstract = {The realization of two-dimensional (2D) topological
insulators (TIs) in HgTe/CdTe quantum wells (QWs) has
generated an explosion of research on TIs and novel
topologically nontrivial phases. Here we predict, based on
first-principles calculations, that the newly discovered 2D
topological crystalline insulators (TCIs) phase exists even
in the QWs of trivial insulators, e.g. (Sn/Pb)Te and
Na(Cl/Br), with mirror Chern number ${n}_{{\rm{M}}}=-2$.
Tunable nontrivial energy gaps ranging from 4 to 238 meV are
obtained, guaranteeing further room-temperature observations
and applications. The combined effect of strain and
electrostatic interaction that can be engineered by the
cladding layers leads to a band inversion, resulting in the
phase transition from trivial insulator to 2D TCIs. Our work
provides a new strategy for engineering topological states
in 2D materials.},
