contents In this work, we predict the emergence of a quantum spin Hall insulator (QSHI) in conventional semiconductors, specifically InAs quantum wells, driven by a built-in polarization field. We propose QSHI InAs quantum wells as a platform to engineer topological field effect devices. More precisely, we first present a novel topological logic device that operates without a topological phase transition. Subsequently, we design a high-performance topological transistor due to the presence of edge states. Our approach provides a potential framework for harnessing the unique features of QSHI in device design, paving the way for future topological devices.
