Realizing topological superconductivity and Majorana zero modes in the laboratory is a
major goal in condensed-matter physics. In this Review, we survey the current status of this …

Topological superconductivity can emerge from the combination of conventional
superconductivity in a metal and strong spin–orbit coupling in a semiconductor when they …

Majorana zero modes—quasiparticle states localized at the boundaries of topological
superconductors—are expected to be ideal building blocks for fault-tolerant quantum …

We report an experimental study of the scaling of zero-bias conductance peaks compatible
with Majorana zero modes as a function of magnetic field, tunnel coupling, and temperature …

Majorana bound states often occur at the end of a 1D topological superconductor. Validated
by a new bulk invariant and an intuitive edge argument, we show the emergence of one …

Majorana zero modes (MZMs) are spatially localized, zero-energy fractional quasiparticles
with non-Abelian braiding statistics that hold promise for topological quantum computing …

This review presents an entry-level introduction to topological quantum computation--
quantum computing with anyons. We introduce anyons at the system-independent level of …

We consider a two-dimensional electron gas with strong spin-orbit coupling contacted by
two superconducting leads, forming a Josephson junction. We show that in the presence of …

We investigate zero-bias conductance peaks that arise from coalescing subgap Andreev
states, consistent with emerging Majorana zero modes, in hybrid semiconductor …

Semiconductor nanowires have opened new research avenues in quantum transport owing
to their confined geometry and electrostatic tunability. They have offered an exceptional …
