Gap reopening as a possible signature of coupling between Majorana zero modes in Sn-(Bi,Sb)2(Te,S)3-based Josephson trijunctions
Duolin Wang, Xiang Zhang, Yunxiao Zhang +21
In the past two decades, enormous efforts have been made to search for possible platforms and schemes to implement topological quantum computation (TQC). In exploring the Fu-Kane s…
Probing vacuum birefringence in an Ultrastrong Laser Field via High-energy Gamma-ray Polarimetry
Da-Lin Wang, Xian-Zhang Wu, Rui-Qi Qin +5
Vacuum birefringence (VB), a fundamental prediction of nonlinear quantum electrodynamics (QED), has eluded direct laboratory detection due to its extreme weakness. We propose a com…
Exchange operation of Majorana zero modes in topological insulator-based Josephson trijunctions
Yunxiao Zhang, Zhaozheng Lyu, Xiang Wang +19
Majorana zero modes are anyons obeying non-Abelian exchange statistics distinct from fermions or bosons. While significant progresses have been achieved in the past two decades in…
Procedure of tuning up a three-site artificial Kitaev chain based on transmon measurements
Xiaozhou Yang, Zhaozheng Lyu, Xiang Wang +14
Artificial Kitaev chains (AKCs), formed of quantum dot-superconductor linear arrays, provide a promising platform for hosting Majorana bound states (MBSs) and implementing topologi…
Measurement of parity-dependent energy-phase relation of the low-energy states in a potential artificial Kitaev chain utilizing a transmon qubit
Enna Zhuo, Xiaozhou Yang, Yuyang Huang +18
Artificial Kitaev chains have emerged as a promising platform for realizing topological quantum computing. Once the chains are formed and the Majorana zero modes are braided/fused,…
Controllable creation of topological boundary states in topological-insulator-based Josephson corner junctions
Xiang Wang, Duolin Wang, Yunxiao Zhang +15
Majorana zero modes (MZMs) in condensed matter systems have attracted great attention in the past two decades, due to their interesting physics and potential application in topolog…
