Phase Control of Majorana Bound States in a Topological X Junction
Tong Zhou, Matthieu C. Dartiailh, William Mayer +4
Topological superconductivity supports exotic Majorana bound states (MBS) which are chargeless zero-energy emergent quasiparticles. With their non-Abelian exchange statistics and f…
Optical control of carrier wavefunction in magnetic quantum dots
P. Zhang, T. Norden, J. M. Pientka +10
Spatially indirect Type-II band alignment in magnetically-doped quantum dot (QD) structures provides unexplored opportunities to control the magnetic interaction between carrier wa…
Tunneling Planar Hall Effect in Topological Insulators: Spin-Valves and Amplifiers
Benedikt Scharf, Alex Matos-Abiague, Jong E. Han +2
We investigate tunneling across a single ferromagnetic barrier on the surface of a three-dimensional topological insulator. In the presence of a magnetization component along the b…
Magnetic ordering in quantum dots: Open vs. closed shells
J. M. Pientka, R. Oszwałdowski, A. G. Petukhov +2
In magnetically-doped quantum dots changing the carrier occupancy, from open to closed shells, leads to qualitatively different forms of carrier-mediated magnetic ordering. While i…
Nodal "ground states" and orbital textures in semiconductor quantum dots
Jeongsu Lee, Karel Výborný, Jong E. Han +1
Conventional understanding implies that the ground state of a nonmagnetic quantum mechanical system should be nodeless. While this notion also provides a valuable guidance in under…
Reentrant Formation of Magnetic Polarons in Quantum Dots
J. M. Pientka, R. Oszwałdowski, A. G. Petukhov +2
We propose a model of magnetic polaron formation in semiconductor quantum dots doped with magnetic ions. A wetting layer serves as a reservoir of photo-generated holes, which can b…
