This study explores the possibility and presents a methodology to synthesize a classical mechanical analogue to the quantum mechanical 1D Kitaev model. While being fundamentally different, we will identify significant conceptual…
We study the topological phase diagram of a setup composed of two nanowires with strong Rashba spin-orbit interaction subjected to an external magnetic field and brought into the proximity to a bulk $s$-wave superconductor in the presence…
Majorana and trivial Andreev bound states are predicted to appear in superconductor-semiconductor hybrid systems, but their identification is still a challenging task. Here we consider superconducting junctions with Rashba spin-orbit…
Motivated by the recent experimental observation of the topological Anderson insulator in disordered atomic wires based on the Su-Schrieffer-Heeger (SSH) model, we study disorder effects on a dimerized Kitaev superconductor chain which is…
In superconductor-semiconductor hybrids, applying a magnetic field closes a trivial bulk gap and causes a topological phase transition (TPT), resulting in the emergence of Majorana zero modes at both ends of the wires. However, trivial…
We study the quasiparticle states and nonlocal correlations of a hybrid structure, comprising two quantum dots interconnected through a short-length topological superconducting nanowire hosting overlaping Majorana modes. We show that the…
A superconducting wire described by a p-wave pairing and a Kitaev Hamiltonian exhibits Majorana fermions at its edges and is topologically protected by symmetry. We consider two Kitaev wires (chains) coupled by a Coulomb type interaction…
We report transport measurements of gate-tunable Andreev bound states in a carbon nanotube quantum dot coupled to two superconducting leads. In particular, we observe clear features of two types of Kondo ridges, which can be understood in…
Topological quantum computation using non-Abelian Majorana zero modes localized in proximitized semiconductor nanowires requires careful electrostatic control of wire-junctions so as to manipulate and braid the zero modes enabling anyonic…
The interplay of topology and disorder in non-equilibrium quantum systems is an intriguing subject. Here, we look for a suitable platform that enables an in-depth exploration of the topic. To this end, We analyze the topological and…
In an attempt to theoretically investigate the quantum phase transition and criticality in topological models, we study Kitaev chain with longer-range couplings (finite number of neighbors) as well as truly long-range couplings (infinite…
We study Kitaev model in one-dimension with open boundary condition by using exact analytic methods for non-interacting system at zero chemical potential as well as in the symmetric case of {\Delta} = t, and by using…
We propose microwave-controlled rotations for qubits realized as Majorana bound states. To this end we study an inhomogeneous Kitaev chain in a microwave cavity. The chain consists of two topologically nontrivial regions separated by a…
Chains of magnetic atoms with either strong spin-orbit coupling or spiral magnetic order which are proximity-coupled to superconducting substrates can host topologically non-trivial Majorana bound states. The experimental signature of these…
We present a comprehensive, analytical treatment of the finite Kitaev chain for arbitrary chemical potential. We derive the momentum quantization conditions and present exact analytical formulae for the resulting energy spectrum and…
We investigate electron transport inside a ring system composed of a quantum dot (QD) coupled to two Majorana bound states confined at the ends of a one-dimensional topological superconductor nanowire. By tuning the magnetic flux threading…
An attempt is made to quantum simulate the topological classification, such as winding number, geometric phase and symmetry properties for a quantum simulated Kitaev chain. We find, {\alpha} (ratio between the spin-orbit coupling and…
Topological superconductors (SCs) hold great promise for fault-tolerant quantum hardware, however, their experimental realization is very challenging. Recently, superconducting artificial molecules (Andreev molecules) have opened new…
Planar Josephson junctions provide a platform to host topological superconductivity which, through manipulating Majorana bound states (MBS), could enable fault-tolerant quantum computing. However, what constitutes experimental signatures of…
A semiconductor nanowire brought in proximity to a superconductor can form discrete, particle-hole symmetric states, known as Andreev bound states (ABSs). An ABS can be found in its ground or excited states of different spin and parity,…
