Band structures of pristine (a) MoTe₂ and (b) WTe₂ monolayers, where black dashed rectangles present the building blocks of the LHSs. Projected band structures of A-11 LHS (c) without and (d) with SOC effect. Projected band structures of Z-11 LHS (e) without and (f) with SOC effect. Orange and red dots represent MoTe₂ units, and green and blue dots refer to WTe₂ units. The band gaps are marked by blue arrows.
