Manipulation of Majorana bound states in proximity to a quantum ring with Rashba coupling
The quest for Majorana zero modes in the laboratory is an active field of research in
condensed matter physics. In this regard, there have been many theoretical proposals;
however, their experimental detection remains elusive. In this article, we present a realistic
setting by considering a quantum ring with Rashba spin-orbit coupling and threaded by a
magnetic flux, in contact with a topological superconducting nanowire. We focus on spin-
polarized persistent currents to assess the existence of Majorana zero modes. We find that …
