Two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors have emerged as leading candidates for the development of low-power and multifunctional computing applications, thanks to their qualities such as layer-dependent band gap tunability, high carrier…
A recent theoretical proposal suggests that a simple circuit utilizing two superinductors may produce a qubit with ground state degeneracy [P. Brooks et al., Phys. Rev. A 87, 052306 (2013)]. We perform a full circuit analysis along with…
The use of qubits as sensitive magnetometers has been studied theoretically and recent demonstrated experimentally. In this paper we propose a generalisation of this concept, where a scanning two-state quantum system is used to probe the…
Subsystem symmetries are intermediate between global and gauge symmetries. One can treat these symmetries either like global symmetries that act on subregions of a system, or gauge symmetries that act on the regions transverse to the…
The holonomic manipulation of spin-orbital degenerate states, encoded in the Kramers doublet of narrow semiconducting channels with spin-orbit interaction, is shown to be intimately intertwined with the geometrical shape of the…
We propose a new design for a quantum bit with four superconducting islands in the topology of a symmetric tetrahedron, uniformly frustrated with one-half flux-quantum per loop and one-half Cooper-pair per island. This structure emulates a…
Topological superconductivity emerges in chains or arrays of magnetic atoms coupled to a superconductor. However, the external controllability of such systems with gate voltages is detrimental for their future implementation in a…
Magnetism is a prototypical phenomenon of quantum collective state, and has found ubiquitous applications in semiconductor technologies such as dynamic random access memory (DRAM). In conventional materials, it typically arises from the…
Quantum devices based on InSb nanowires (NWs) are a prime candidate system for realizing and exploring topologically-protected quantum states and for electrically-controlled spin-based qubits. The influence of disorder on achieving reliable…
Motivated by the low temperature magnetization curves of several spinel chromites, we theoretically study classical mechanisms of degeneracy lifting in pyrochlore antiferromagnets. Our main focus is on the coupling of spin exchange to…
Energy spectroscopy of strongly interacting phases requires probes which minimize screening while retaining spectral resolution and local sensitivity. Here we demonstrate that such probes can be realized using atomic sized quantum dots…
We report an unexpected systematic degeneracy between different multiplets in an inversion symmetric system of two coupled Gaudin models with homogeneous couplings, as occurring for example in the context of solid state quantum information…
We study several exotic systems, including the X-cube model, on a flat three-torus with a twist in the $xy$-plane. The ground state degeneracy turns out to be a sensitive function of various geometrical parameters. Starting from a lattice,…
The properties of a degenerate band-edge (DBE) oscillator based on the synchronous interaction between a linear electron beam synchronized with four degenerate electromagnetic modes are presented. The DBE in the cold slow-wave structure is…
We report fabrication and measurement of a device where closely-placed two parallel InAs nanowires (NWs) are contacted by source and drain normal metal electrodes. Established technique includes selective deposition of double nanowires onto…
A theoretical model of a single molecule coupled to many vibronic modes is presented. At low energies, transport is dominated by electron-vibron processes where transfer of an electron through the dot is accompanied by the…

Disorder is the primary obstacle in current Majorana nanowire experiments. Reducing disorder or achieving ballistic transport is thus of paramount importance. In clean and ballistic nanowire devices, quantized conductance is expected with…
A semiconductor-based charge qubit, confined in double quantum dots, can be a platform to implement quantum computing. However, it suffers severely from charge noises. Here, we provide a theoretical framework to implement universal…
We present a device architecture of hybrid-edge and dual-gated quantum point contact. We demonstrate improved electrostatic control over the separation, position, and coupling of each broken-symmetry compressible strip in graphene. Via…
