A one-dimensional semiconductor nanowire proximitized by a nearby superconductor may become a topological superconductor hosting localized Majorana zero modes at the two wire ends in the presence of spin-orbit coupling and Zeeman spin…
Full-shell nanowires have been proposed as an alternative nanowire design in the search of topological superconductivity and Majorana zero modes (MZMs). They are hybrid nanostructures consisting of a semiconductor core fully covered by a…
In tunneling spectroscopy studies of ferromagnet/superconductor (F/S) junctions, the effects of spin polarization, Fermi wavevector mismatch (FWM) between the F and S regions, and interfacial resistance play a crucial role. We study the low…
The goal of creating topologically protected qubits using non-Abelian anyons is currently one of the most exciting areas of research in quantum condensed matter physics. Majorana zero modes (MZM), which are non-Abelian anyons predicted to…
Tunneling spectroscopy cannot be used as an unambiguous detection tool for Majorana zero modes (MZMs) in conventional partial-shell nanowires. The presence of smooth confinement at the end of the hybrid wire (among other sources of…
We show that a pair of overlapping Majorana bound states (MBSs) forming a partially-separated Andreev bound state (ps-ABS) represents a generic low-energy feature in spin-orbit coupled semiconductor-superconductor (SM-SC) hybrid nanowires…
In this work, we investigate the tunneling characteristics of Majorana zero modes (MZMs) in vortex lattices based on scanning tunneling microscopy measurement. We find that zero bias conductance does not reach the quantized value owing to…
We propose controlling the hybridization between Majorana zero modes at the ends of magnetic adatom chains on superconductors by an additional magnetic adatom deposited close by. By tuning the additional adatom's magnetization, position,…
Trivial Andreev bound states arising from chemical potential variations could lead to zero-bias tunneling conductance peaks at finite magnetic fields in class $D$ nanowires, precisely mimicking the predicted zero-bias conductance peaks…
Majorana zero modes (MZMs)--bearing potential applications for topological quantum computing--are verified in quasi-one-dimensional (1D) Fermion systems, including semiconductor nanowires, magnetic atomic chains, planar Josephson junctions.…
Hybrid nanowires with proximity-induced superconductivity in the topological regime host Majorana zero modes (MZMs) at their ends, and networks of such structures can produce topologically protected qubits. In a double-island geometry where…
We show that Majorana fermions associated with Majorana flat bands emerge as zero energy modes on the [110] edge of single layer or multilayer nodal superconductors with $d_{x^2-y^2}$-wave pairing and Rashba spin-orbit coupling. Moreover,…
The Majorana search is caught up in an extensive debate about the false-positive signals from non-topological Andreev bound states (ABSs). We introduce a remedy using the dissipative probe to generate electron-boson interaction. We…
We study signatures of Majorana zero modes (MZMs) bound to Josephson vortices in superconductor-three-dimensional topological insulator-superconductor (S-TI-S) Josephson junctions placed in a perpendicular magnetic field. First, using…
We study the charge transport of the spin-selective Andreev reflection(SSAR) effect between a spin polarized scanning tunneling microscope(STM) tip and a Majorana zero mode(MZM). Considering both the MZM and the excited states, we calculate…
Photon-assisted tunneling arises under an ac bias, with the drive frequency setting the photon energy. The excess photon-assisted noise is defined as the difference between the shot noise under a combined dc and ac bias and that under a dc…
Parafermion zero modes are exotic emergent excitations that can be considered as $\mathbb{Z}_n$ generalizations of Majorana fermions. Present in fractional quantum Hall-superconductor hybrid systems, among others, they can serve as…
We propose and analyze theoretically an experimental setup for detecting the elusive Majorana particle in semiconductor-superconductor heterostructures. The experimental system consists of one-dimensional semiconductor wire with strong…
We propose using tunneling spectroscopy with a superconducting electrode to probe the collective modes of unconventional superconductors. The modes are predicted to appear as peaks in dI/dV at voltages given by eV = {\omega}i/2 where…
We show that weak antilocalization by disorder competes with resonant Andreev reflection from a Majorana zero-mode to produce a zero-voltage conductance peak of order e^2/h in a superconducting nanowire. The phase conjugation needed for…
