This is a short note presenting a repeated experiment of the half-quantized transport signature given by Majorana chiral modes living in a heterostructure formed by an s-wave superconductor and a quantum-anomalous-Hall insulator.
After the recognition of the possibility to implement Majorana fermions using the building blocks of solid-state matters, the detection of this peculiar particle has been an intense focus of research. Here we experimentally demonstrate a…
A quantum anomalous Hall (QAH) insulator coupled to an s-wave superconductor is predicted to harbor a topological superconducting phase, the elementary excitations of which (i.e. Majorana fermions) can form topological qubits upon…
We study the quantum phase transitions of a disordered two-dimensional quantum anomalous Hall insulator with $s$-wave superconducting proximity, which are governed by the percolation theory of chiral Majorana fermions. Based on symmetry…
We propose a conductance measurement to detect the backscattering of chiral Majorana edge states. Because normal and Andreev processes have equal probability for backscattering of a single chiral Majorana edge state, there is qualitative…
Recently, a quantum anomalous Hall insulator (QAHI)/superconductor heterostructure has been realized and shows half-quantized conductance plateaus in two-terminal conductance measurements [Q. L. He \textit{et al.}, Science {\bf357}, 294…
Two-terminal conductance quantization in the context of quantum Hall (QH) physics is intimately related to the current carried by a discrete number of chiral edge modes. Upon pinching off a QH bar, one may engineer setups where some modes…
A weak superconducting proximity effect in the vicinity of the topological transition of a quantum anomalous Hall system has been proposed as a venue to realize a topological superconductor (TSC) with chiral Majorana edge modes (CMEMs). A…
Chiral Majorana edge modes are theoretically proposed to perform braiding operations for the potential quantum computation. Here, we suggest a scheme to regulate trajectories of the chiral Majorana fermion based on a quantum anomalous Hall…
Chiral one-dimensional transport can be realized in thin films of a surface-insulating ferromagnetic topological insulator called quantum anomalous Hall insulator (QAHI). When superconducting (SC) pairing correlations are induced in the…
The pursuit of understanding parity anomaly in condensed matter systems has led to significant advancements in both theoretical and experimental research in recent years. In this study, we explore the parity anomaly of massless Dirac…
The emergence of Majorana fermion surface states has been studied in several environments. In this paper we discuss the current-voltage characteristics of a Majorana fermion state as a function of the voltage, temperature and magnetic field…
In a recent experiment, half-quantized longitudinal conductance plateaus (HQCPs) of height $\frac{e^2}{2h}$ have been observed in quantum anomalous Hall (QAH) insulator/superconductor heterostructure transport measurements. It was predicted…
We predict conductance oscillations in a quantum-anomalous Hall 2d strip having a superconducting region of length $L_x$ with a chiral Majorana mode. These oscillations require a finite transverse extension of the strip $L_y$ of a few…
We propose a general recipe for chiral topological superconductor (TSC) in two dimensions with multiple $N$ chiral Majorana fermion modes from a quantied anomalous Hall insulator in proximity to an s-wave superconductor with nontrivial band…
We show that in the proximity of s-wave superconductors, the magnetic topological surface states can transform into Majorana surface state, featuring a single gapless Majorana cone with parity anomaly when the superconducting pairing gap…
A single massive Dirac surface band is predicted to exhibit a half-quantized Hall conductance, a hallmark of the C = 1/2 parity anomaly state in quantum field theory. Experimental signatures of the C = 1/2 parity anomaly state have been…
We address the question about the origin of the $\frac12 \frac{e^2}{h}$ conductance plateau observed in a recent experiment on an integer quantum Hall (IQH) film covered by a superconducting (SC) film. Since 1-dimensional (1D) chiral…
Since the ground-breaking discovery of the quantum Hall effect, half-quantized quantum Hall plateaus have been some of the most studied and sought-after states. Their importance stems not only from the fact that they transcend the composite…
In the quantum anomalous Hall effect, quantized Hall resistance and vanishing longitudinal resistivity are predicted to result from the presence of dissipationless, chiral edge states and an insulating 2D bulk, without requiring an external…
