Andreev bound states (ABSs) are well-defined many-body quantum states that emerge from
the hybridization of individual quantum dot (QD) states with a superconductor and exhibit …

Devices to generate on-demand non-local spin entangled electron pairs have potential
application as solid-state analogues of the entangled photon sources used in quantum …
