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 …

III–V semiconductor nanowires have shown great potential in various quantum transport
experiments. However, realizing a scalable high-quality nanowire-based platform that could …

Uniform, defect‐free crystal interfaces and surfaces are crucial ingredients for realizing high‐
performance nanoscale devices. A pertinent example is that advances in gate‐tunable and …

Majorana quasiparticles are generally detected in a 1D topological superconductor by
tunneling electrons into its edge, with an emergent zero-bias conductance peak (ZBCP) …

We demonstrate the in situ growth of ultra-thin InAs nanowires with an epitaxial Al film by
molecular-beam epitaxy. Our InAs nanowire diameter (∼ 30 nm) is much thinner than before …

Low-dimensional narrow-band-gap III–V semiconductors are key building blocks for the next
generation of high-performance nanoelectronics, nanophotonics, and quantum devices …

In-plane InAs nanowires and nanowire networks show great potential to be used as building
blocks for electronic, optoelectronic and topological quantum devices, and all these …

Hybrid semiconductor–superconductor nanowires have emerged as a cornerstone in
modern quantum devices. Integrating such nanowires into hybrid devices typically requires …

A superconductor with px+ ipy order has long fascinated the physics community because
vortex defects in such a system host Majorana zero modes. Here, we propose a simple …

We study one-dimensional (1D) and quasi-1D periodic structures as possible platforms for
the emergence of Majorana bound states with enhanced robustness against disorder and …
