Majorana nanowires for topological quantum computation

P Marra - Journal of Applied Physics, 2022 - pubs.aip.org
Majorana bound states are quasiparticle excitations localized at the boundaries of a
topologically nontrivial superconductor. They are zero-energy, charge-neutral, particle–hole …

Partially separated Majorana modes in a disordered medium

C Zeng, G Sharma, S Tewari, T Stanescu - Physical Review B, 2022 - APS
Focusing on the implications of recent experiments on Majorana zero modes in
semiconductor-superconductor (SM-SC) heterostructures, we critically examine the …

Full parity phase diagram of a proximitized nanowire island

J Shen, GW Winkler, F Borsoi, S Heedt, V Levajac… - Physical Review B, 2021 - APS
We measure the charge periodicity of Coulomb blockade conductance oscillations of a
hybrid InSb-Al island as a function of gate voltage and parallel magnetic field. The …

Majorana/Andreev crossover and the fate of the topological phase transition in inhomogeneous nanowires

P Marra, A Nigro - Journal of Physics: Condensed Matter, 2022 - iopscience.iop.org
Majorana bound states (MBS) and Andreev bound states (ABS) in realistic Majorana
nanowires setups have similar experimental signatures which make them hard to …

Feasibility of measurement-based braiding in the quasi-Majorana regime of semiconductor-superconductor heterostructures

C Zeng, G Sharma, TD Stanescu, S Tewari - Physical Review B, 2020 - APS
We discuss the feasibility of measurement-based braiding in semiconductor-superconductor
(SM-SC) heterostructures in the so-called quasi-Majorana regime—the topologically-trivial …
