Fractionally charged excitations play a central role in condensed matter physics, and can be probed in different ways. If transport occurs via dissipation-less supercurrents, they manifest as a fractional Josephson effect, whereas in…
By now it is known that in an s-wave superconductor-ferromagnet-superconductor ($SFS$) structure the supercurrent induced by spin singlet pairs can only transmit a short distance of the order of magnetic coherence length. The long-range…

Topological spin superconductors are $p$-wave spin-triplet exciton insulators whose topological edge modes have been shown to obey non-Abelian braiding statistics. Based on a toy model as the spin counterpart of the Kitaev's chain, we study…
A new picture of the Josephson effect is devised. The radio-frequency (RF) signal, observed in a Josephson junction, is shown to stem from bound electrons, tunneling periodically through the insulating film. This holds also for the…
Magnetic order typically disrupts superconductivity, reducing the supercurrent. Here, we show that chiral antiferromagnetism, with non-relativistic spin-split bands and distinctive valley-locked spin texture, can instead significantly…
