We propose a scheme for the use of magnetic force microscopy to manipulate Majorana zero modes emergent in vortex cores of topological superconductors in the Fe(Se,Te) family. We calculate the pinning forces necessary to drag two vortices…
We study Majorana zero modes properties in cylindrical cross-section semiconductor quantum wires based on the $k \cdot p$ theory and a discretized lattice model. Within this model, the influence of disorder potentials in the wire and…
Semiconducting-superconducting nanowires attract widespread interest owing to the possible presence of non-abelian Majorana zero modes, which hold promise for topological quantum computation. However, the search for Majorana signatures is…
We investigate the sub gap properties of a three terminal Josephson T-junction composed of topologically superconducting wires connected by a normal metal region. This system naturally hosts zero energy Andreev bound states which are of…
Recently, iron-chalcogenide superconductors have emerged as a new and promising platform for studying and manipulating Majorana zero mode (MZM). By combining topological band structure and superconductivity in a multiband material, they…
The interplay between superconductivity and ferromagnetism has long been pursued as a route to unconventional Josephson effects, yet suitable material platforms remain limited. Here we report Josephson junctions based on epitaxial…
We propose a route for pinning zero-field superconducting vortices in systems which are exchange-coupled to magnetic islands and feature Rashba spin-orbit coupling. We consider islands with sizes which greatly exceed those of the vortex…
As part of the intense effort towards identifying platforms in which Majorana bound states can be realized and manipulated to perform qubit operations, we propose a topological Josephson junction architecture that achieves these…
Majorana zero modes are usually attributed to topological superconductors. We study a class of two-dimensional topologically trivial superconductors without chiral edge modes, which nevertheless host robust Majorana zero modes in…
Majorana Fermions, strange particles that are their own antiparticles, were predicted in 1937 and have been sought after ever since. In condensed matter they are predicted to exist as vortex core or edge excitations in certain exotic…
We study topological superconductor in one-dimensional (1D) mosaic lattice whose on-site potentials are modulated for equally spaced sites. When the system is topologically nontrivial, Majorana zero modes appear at the two ends of the 1D…
In this manuscript I present new hybrid devices based on multi-wire/channel Rashba semiconductors, which harbor Majorana fermions (MFs) without a Zeeman field. In contrast, magnetic fluxes, supercurrents or electric fields can be employed,…
One of the promising platforms for creating Majorana bound states is a hybrid nanostructure consisting of a semiconducting nanowire covered by a superconductor. We analyze the previously disregarded role of electrostatic interaction in…
There exists a variety of proposals to transform a conventional s-wave superconductor into a topological superconductor, supporting Majorana fermion mid-gap states. A necessary ingredient of these proposals is strong spin-orbit coupling.…
Spin chains proximitized with superconducting condensates have emerged as one of the most promising platforms for the realization of Majorana modes. Here, we craft diluted spin chains atom-by-atom following seminal theoretical proposal…
Majorana zero modes (MZMs) emerging at the edges of topological superconducting wires have been proposed as the building blocks of novel, fault-tolerant quantum computation protocols. Coherent detection and manipulation of such states in…
We characterize the Majorana zero modes in topological hybrid superconductor-semiconductor wires with spin-orbit coupling and magnetic field, in terms of generalized Bloch coordinates $\varphi, \theta, \delta$, and analyze their…
We consider transport properties of a hybrid device composed by a quantum dot placed between normal and superconducting reservoirs, and coupled to a Majorana nanowire: a topological superconducting segment hosting Majorana zero-modes at the…
We study theoretically charge transport properties of normal metal (N) / ferromagnet insulator (FI) / superconductor (S) junction and S/FI/S junction formed on the surface of three-dimensional topological insulator (TI), where chiral…
We consider the surface states of a spherical topological insulator piecewise-terminated by superconductivity or ferromagnetism over various regions of the spherical surface. Such terminations gap the surface states by breaking U(1)…
