The Bi$_2$Se$_3$ class of topological insulators has recently been shown to undergo a superconducting transition upon hole or electron doping (Cu$_x$-Bi$_2$Se$_3$ with T$_C$=3.8$^o$K and Pd$_x$-Bi$_2$Te$_3$ with T$_C$=5$^o$K), raising the…
Noncollinear magnetism opens exciting possibilities to generate topological superconductivity. Here, we focus on helical and cycloidal magnetic textures in magnet-superconductor hybrid structures in a background magnetic field. We…
The study of topological classes and their associated edge states has been of ongoing interest. In one dimension, the standard platform of these studies has been the conventional Kitaev wire and its realizations. In this work, we study the…
We propose helical topological superconductivity away from the Fermi surface in three-dimensional time-reversal-symmetric odd-parity multiband superconductors. In these systems, pairing between electrons originating from different bands is…
We study multiband semiconducting nanowires proximity-coupled with an s-wave superconductor. We show that when odd number of subbands are occupied the system realizes non-trivial topological state supporting Majorana modes localized at the…
Topological superconductors are a class of unconventional superconducting materials featuring sub-gap zero-energy Majorana bound modes that hold promise as a building block for topological quantum computing. In this work, we study the…
We study Majorana edge states and their topological properties of one-dimensional(1D) and two-dimensional(2D) Rashba semiconductor deposited on iron-based superconductor under the applied Zeeman field for various directions. Using the…
Majorana bound states often occur at the end of 1D topological superconductor or at the $\pi$ Josephson junction mediated by a helical edge state. Validated by a new bulk invariant and an intuitive edge argument, we show the emergence of…
Three-dimensional doped Dirac insulators foster simply connected (in both topological and trivial regimes) and annular (deep inside the topological regime) Fermi surfaces (FSs) in the normal state, and allow on-site repulsions among…
In this work, we show that a quasi-one-dimensional $d_{x^2-y^2}$-wave superconductor with Rashba spin-orbit coupling is a topological superconductor (TS). This time-reversal invariant DIII class TS supports two topologically protected zero…
Three-dimensional higher-order topological semimetals in crystalline systems exhibit higher-order Fermi arcs on one-dimensional hinges, challenging the conventional bulk-boundary correspondence. However, the existence of higher-order Fermi…
We consider a new model system supporting Majorana zero modes based on semiconductor nanowires with a full superconducting shell. We demonstrate that, in the presence of spin-orbit coupling in the semiconductor induced by a radial electric…
Chiral and helical Majorana edge modes are two archetypal gapless excitations of two-dimensional topological superconductors. They belong to superconductors from two different Altland-Zirnbauer symmetry classes characterized by $\mathbb{Z}$…
We study a new type of three-dimensional topological superconductors that exhibit Majorana zero modes (MZM) protected by a magnetic group symmetry, a combined antiunitary symmetry composed of a mirror reflection and time-reversal. This new…
We analyze the formation of Majorana zero-modes at the edge of a two-dimensional topological superconductor. In particular, we study a time-reversal-invariant triplet phase that is likely to exist in doped Bi$_2$Se$_3$. Upon the…
We show that confined Majorana fermions can exist in nanowires with proximity induced s-wave superconducting pairing if the direction of an external magnetic field rotates along the wire. The system is equivalent to nanowires with…
In the two-dimensional Kondo-Heisenberg lattice model away from half-filled, the local antiferromagnetic exchange coupling can provide the pairing mechanism of quasiparticles via the Kondo screening effect, leading to the heavy fermion…
We investigate theoretically the properties of s-wave multiband superconductors in the weak coupling (BCS) limit in the presence of pair-breaking effects of magnetic field. It is shown that a qualitatively new gapless superconducting state…
Here we present the theoretical clarification of possibility of eight Majorana-like modes (quasi-particles which are self-conjugate) close to the experimentally inaccessible Dirac points of a two-dimensional monolayer Dirac system. The…
We show that an ordinary semiconducting thin film with spin-orbit coupling can, under ap- propriate circumstances, be in a quantum topologically ordered state supporting exotic Majorana excitations which follow non-Abelian statistics. The…
