| contents | Altermagnetism and topological insulators represent two of the most transformative frontiers in modern condensed matter physics, spintronics, and quantum information science. Bringing these two paradigms together opens a largely unexplored route toward fundamentally new quantum phenomena. Here, we predict a topological altermagnetic phase in bilayer tetragonal Fe-based superconductors and reveal it as a highly tunable platform for valley-polarized anomalous Hall physics. Based on first-principles calculations, we show that the characteristic spin-splitting and valley polarization can be effectively tuned via applied strain. Moreover, the resulting valley-polarized anomalous Hall conductivity can be manipulated by shifting the Fermi level. These findings reveal a powerful route for controlling altermagnetism in topological materials and identify a realistic material platform for its experimental realization and technological exploitation. |
