Scalable Majorana vortex modes in iron-based superconductors
Ching-Kai Chiu, T. Machida, Yingyi Huang +2
A vortex in an s-wave superconductor with a surface Dirac cone can trap a Majorana bound state with zero energy leading to a zero-bias peak (ZBP) of tunneling conductance. The iron…

Quasiparticle gaps in multiprobe Majorana nanowires
Yingyi Huang, Jay D. Sau, Tudor D. Stanescu +1
We theoretically study a spin-orbit-coupled nanowire proximitized by a superconductor in the presence of an externally applied Zeeman field ("Majorana nanowire") with zero-energy M…

Metamorphosis of Andreev bound states into Majorana bound states in pristine nanowires
Yingyi Huang, Haining Pan, Chun-Xiao Liu +3
We show theoretically that in the generic finite chemical potential situation, the clean superconducting spin-orbit-coupled nanowire has two distinct nontopological regimes as a fu…
