A recent work [1] demonstrated, for an ideal spinless p+ip superconductor, that Majorana end-states can be realized outside the strict one-dimensional limit, so long as: 1) the sample width does not greatly exceed the superconducting…

We study in-gap states of a single magnetic impurity embedded in a honeycomb monolayer which is deposited on superconducting substrate. The intrinsic spin-orbit coupling induces the quantum spin Hall insulating (QSHI) phase gapped around…

Using variational algorithm on an infinite Shastry-Sutherland (SS) lattice we show that the introduction of a static nonmagnetic impurity into a dimerized ground state leads to a formation of a small, localized spin polaron surrounding the…

We theoretically investigate the quasiparticle (polaron) properties of an impurity immersing in a Bose-Einstein condensate with equal Rashba and Dresselhaus spin-orbit coupling at zero temperature. In the presence of spin-orbit coupling,…

The anomalous proximity effect of a spin-triplet $p$-wave superconductor has been known as a part of the Majorana physics and is explained by the penetration of zero-energy states from a surface of a superconductor to a dirty normal metal.…

We present a thermodynamic description of a single magnetic impurity at the edge of a superconducting wire. The impurity exhibits four phases $\unicode{x2014}$ Kondo, Yu-Shiba-Rusinov (YSR) I and II, and local moment $\unicode{x2014}$ a…

Fully gapped, spin singlet superconductors with antisymmetric spin-orbit coupling in a Zeeman magnetic field provide a promising route to realize superconducting states with non-Abelian topological order and therefore fault-tolerant quantum…

Despite plenty of room at the bottom, there is a limit to the miniaturization of every process. For charge transport this is realized by the coupling of single discrete energy levels at the atomic scale. Here, we demonstrate sequential…

The competition of the free spin state of a paramagnetic impurity on a superconductor with its screened counterpart is characterized by the energy scale of Kondo screening $k_BT_K$ compared to the superconducting pairing energy $\Delta$.…

We show that the topologically trivial zero bias peak (ZBP) emerging in semiconductor Majorana wires due to soft confinement exhibits correlated splitting oscillations as a function of the applied Zeeman field, similar to the correlated…

We explain how Rashba spin-orbit coupling (SOC) in a two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG), or in a conventional $s$-wave superconductor, can lead to a large magnetoresistance even with one ferromagnet. However, such enhanced…

Magnetic impurities create in-gap states on superconductors. Recent experiments explore the topological properties of one-dimensional arrays of magnetic impurities on superconductors, because in certain regimes p-wave pairing can be locally…

We report the occurrence of the zero-bias conductance peak (ZBCP) in an InAs nanowire coupled to PbIn superconductors with varying temperature, bias voltage, and magnetic field. The ZBCP is suppressed with increasing temperature and bias…

Semiconductor quantum dots in close proximity to superconductors may provoke localized bound states within the superconducting energy gap known as Yu-Shiba-Rusinov (YSR) state, which is a promising candidate for constructing Majorana zero…

Quantum spin impurities coupled to superconductors are under intense investigation for their relevance to fundamental research as well as the prospects to engineer novel quantum phases of matter. Here we develop a large-$N$ mean-field…

A magnetic impurity in a BCS superconductor induces the formation of a Shiba state and drives a local quantum phase transition. We generalize this concept to a one-dimensional superconductor with fractionalized excitations, where the…

We study the emergence of Majorana zero modes (MZMs) at the ends of a finite double zigzag honeycomb nanoribbon (zHNR). We show that a double zHNR geometry can host spin-polarized MZMs at its ends. We considered a minimal model composed by…

We study the bound state spectrum and 0-$\pi$ transitions in ballistic quasi-1D superconductor/ferromagnetic insulator/superconductor (S/FI/S) Josephson junctions. In addition to the Andreev bound states, stemming from the phase coherence,…

A single impurity problem is investigated for multiband s-wave superconductors with different sign order parameters (+-s-wave superconductors) suggested in Fe-pnictide superconductors. Not only intraband but also interband scattering is…

We study the steady-state dc transport characteristics of a system comprised of an interacting quantum dot, modelled as an Anderson impurity, coupled to two metallic non-interacting leads with Rashba SOC, using an interpolative perturbative…
