Majorana bound states are quasiparticle excitations localized at the boundaries of a
topologically nontrivial superconductor. They are zero-energy, charge-neutral, particle–hole …

We report the emergence of zero-energy states in the trivial phase of a short nanowire
junction with a strong spin-orbit coupling and magnetic field, formed by strong coupling …

Hybrid superconducting circuits, which integrate nonsuperconducting elements into a circuit
quantum electrodynamics (cQED) architecture, expand the possible applications of cQED …

We propose a continuous weak measurement protocol testing the nonlocality of Majorana
bound states through current shot noise correlations. The experimental setup contains a …

The integration of semiconductor Josephson junctions (JJs) in superconducting quantum
circuits provides a versatile platform for hybrid qubits and offers a powerful way to probe …

Majorana bound states in topological superconductors have been predicted to appear in the
form of zero-bias conductance peaks of height 2 e 2/h, which represents one of the most …

The emergence of zero-energy states in nontopological superconductors represents an
inevitable problem that obscures the proper identification of zero-energy Majorana bound …

Topological quantum computation encodes quantum information nonlocally by nucleating
non-Abelian anyons separated by distances L, typically spanning the qubit device size. This …

Anyons are particles obeying statistics of neither bosons nor fermions. Non-Abelian anyons,
whose exchanges are described by a non-Abelian group acting on a set of wave functions …

We show that the microwave (MW) spectra in semiconductor-nanowire-based transmon
qubits provide a strong signature of the presence of Majorana bound states in the junction …
