This review elaborates pedagogically on the fundamental concept, basic theory, expected
properties, and materials realizations of topological superconductors. The relation between …

In this review, we discuss recent progress in the explorations of topological materials
beyond topological insulators; specifically, we focus on topological crystalline insulators and …

The atomic layer deposition (ALD) technique allows the synthesis of materials at the atomic
scale to be controlled. ALD has been adapted to design and prepare single-atom catalysts …

The search for Majorana bound states (MBSs) has been fueled by the prospect of using their
non-Abelian statistics for robust quantum computation. Two-dimensional superconducting …

Topological superconductors are predicted to host exotic Majorana states that obey non-
Abelian statistics and can be used to implement a topological quantum computer. Most of …

Topological insulators represent a new quantum state of matter which is characterized by
peculiar edge or surface states that show up due to a topological character of the bulk wave …

A wide range of materials, like d-wave superconductors, graphene, and topological
insulators, share a fundamental similarity: their low-energy fermionic excitations behave as …

Spontaneous symmetry breaking is an important concept for understanding physics ranging
from the elementary particles to states of matter. For example, the superconducting state …

Néel skyrmions are of high interest due to their potential applications in a variety of
spintronic devices, currently accessible in ultrathin heavy metal/ferromagnetic bilayers and …

The search for topological phases of matter is evolving towards strongly interacting systems,
including magnets and superconductors, where exotic effects emerge from the quantum …
