Majorana bound states in a superconducting Rashba nanowire in the presence of antiferromagnetic order

A Kobiałka, N Sedlmayr, A Ptok - Physical Review B, 2021 - APS
Theoretical studies have shown that Majorana bound states can be induced at the ends of a
one-dimensional wire, a phenomenon possible due to the interplay between s-wave …

Majorana bound states in nanowire-superconductor hybrid systems in periodic magnetic fields

V Kornich, MG Vavilov, M Friesen, MA Eriksson… - Physical Review B, 2020 - APS
We study how the shape of a periodic magnetic field affects the presence of Majorana bound
states (MBS) in a nanowire-superconductor system. Motivated by the field configurations that …

Clock model and parafermions in Rashba nanowires

F Ronetti, D Loss, J Klinovaja - Physical Review B, 2021 - APS
We consider a semiconducting nanowire with Rashba spin-orbit interaction subjected to a
magnetic field and in the presence of strong electron-electron interactions. When the ratio …

[HTML][HTML] Spin–orbit torque rectifier for weak RF energy harvesting

S Sayed, S Salahuddin, E Yablonovitch - Applied Physics Letters, 2021 - pubs.aip.org
We propose a rectifier concept, simultaneously utilizing the Hall effect and the spin–orbit-
torque, that is well matched to the low impedance of antennas. This rectifier is promising for …

Effect of topological length on bound state signatures in a topological nanowire

D Sahu, V Khade, S Gangadharaiah - Physical Review B, 2023 - APS
Majorana bound states (MBSs) at the end of nanowires have been proposed as one of the
most important candidates for topological qubits. However, similar tunneling conductance …

Majorana bound states in topological insulators with hidden Dirac points

F Schulz, K Plekhanov, D Loss, J Klinovaja - Physical Review Research, 2020 - APS
We address the issue of whether it is possible to generate Majorana bound states at the
magnetic-superconducting interface in two-dimensional topological insulators with hidden …
