Abstract Majorana fermions are spin-1/2 neutral particles that are their own antiparticles and
were initially predicted by Ettore Majorana in particle physics but their observation still …

The interfaces between superconductors and other materials have long been established as
being an important part in the exploration of new physics to aid in our understanding of …

Majorana zero modes (MZMs) emerge as edge states in topological superconductors and
are promising for topological quantum computation, but their detection has so far been …

Disorder has appeared as one of the main mechanisms to induce topologically trivial zero-
energy states in superconductor-semiconductor systems, thereby challenging the detection …

We first show the realization of exceptional points in a non-Hermitian superconducting
system based on a conventional superconductor and then demonstrate that, surprisingly, the …

We consider a finite-size topological Josephson junction formed at the edge of a two-
dimensional topological insulator in proximity to conventional superconductors and study …

We study the unconventional superconducting correlations caused by a single isolated
magnetic impurity in a conventional s-wave superconductor. Because of the local breaking …

Magnetic chains on superconductors hosting Majorana zero modes (MZMs) have attracted a
great deal of interest due to their possible applications in fault-tolerant quantum computing …

Few-site Kitaev chains are promising for realizing Majorana zero modes without topological
protection but fully nonlocal, which are known as poor man's Majorana modes. While …

Majorana bound states are interesting candidates for applications in topological quantum
computation. Low-energy models allowing one to grasp their properties are hence …
