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…
Deterministic non-local parity control and supercurrent-based detection in an Andreev molecule
Shang Zhu, Xiaozhou Yang, Mingli Liu +15
The ability to manipulate and detect the parity of quantum states in superconductor-semiconductor hybrid systems is pivotal to realizing the promise of topological quantum computat…
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…
Intrinsic Non-linearity of Josephson Junctions as an Alternative Origin of the Missing First Shapiro Step
Lei Xu, Shuhang Mai, Manzhang Xu +15
The missing first Shapiro step in microwave-irradiated Josephson junctions has been widely interpreted as a hallmark of Majorana bound states. However, conventional mechanisms like…
Broad nonlocal spectrum in the Pb-InSb hybrid three terminals for potential realization of Kitaev chains
Guoan Li, Xiaofan Shi, Ruixuan Zhang +21
Hybrid superconductor-semiconductor(SC-SM) nanowires remain one of the foremost platforms for engineering topological superconductivity and Majorana zero modes(MZMs) towards fault-…
Quantum superconducting diode effect with perfect efficiency above liquid-nitrogen temperature
Heng Wang, Yuying Zhu, Zhonghua Bai +7
The superconducting diode is an emergent device that juggles between the Cooper-paired state and the resistive state with unpaired quasiparticles. Here, we report a quantum version…
