Braiding Induced by Finite-Size Effect in One-Dimensional Topological Superconductors

Abstract

We investigate the transport properties of Majorana zero mode (MZM) and Majorana Kramers pair (MKP) in one-dimensional topological superconductors, respectively. An effective model is established for braiding of MZMs and MKPs. We employ the $d_{x^2-y^2}$-wave topological superconductors to embody the effective model for braiding of MKPs by utilizing finite-size effects and locally tunable coupling parameters. We show how to construct the state initialization and readout via gate control. We also use this method for braiding MZMs in s-wave topological superconductors. Our proposal presents a promising avenue for experimentally verifying the non-Abelian statistical properties of MZMs and MKPs, with implications for topological quantum computing.
