Flux-induced topological superconductivity in full-shell nanowires
S. Vaitiekėnas, G. W. Winkler, B. van Heck +8
We present a novel route to realizing topological superconductivity using magnetic flux applied to a full superconducting shell surrounding a semiconducting nanowire core. In the d…

Flux-induced Majorana modes in full-shell nanowires
S. Vaitiekėnas, M. -T. Deng, P. Krogstrup +1
We demonstrate a novel means of creating Majorana zero modes using magnetic flux applied to a full superconducting shell surrounding a semiconducting nanowire core, unifying approa…

Topological superconductivity in full shell proximitized nanowires
Roman M. Lutchyn, Georg W. Winkler, Bernard van Heck +4
We consider a new model system supporting Majorana zero modes based on semiconductor nanowires with a full superconducting shell. We demonstrate that, in the presence of spin-orbit…
