Germanium-based hybrid semiconductor-superconductor topological quantum computing platforms: Disorder effects

Katharina Laubscher, Jay D. Sau, Sankar Das Sarma

It was recently suggested that proximitized gate-defined Ge hole nanowires could serve as an alternative materials platform for the realization of topological Majorana zero modes (…

Proposal for Majorana Modes without a Magnetic Field in a semiconductor-superconductor sandwich structures

Huan-Kuang Wu, Jay Sau

We propose a planar Josephson junction setup to host Majorana modes where the semiconductor is sandwiched between superconductors on both surfaces. While the studied configuration…

Machine Learning the Disorder Landscape of Majorana Nanowires

Jacob R. Taylor, Jay D. Sau, Sankar Das Sarma

We develop a practical machine learning approach to determine the disorder landscape of Majorana nanowires by using training of the conductance matrix and inverting the conductance…

Theory for dissipative time crystals in coupled parametric oscillators

Stuart Yi-Thomas, Jay D. Sau

Discrete time crystals are novel phases of matter that break the discrete time translational symmetry of a periodically driven system. In this work, we propose a classical system o…

Symmetric, off-diagonal, resistance from rotational symmetry breaking in graphene-WSe heterostructure: prediction for a large magic angle in a Moire system

Jay D. Sau, Sumanta Tewari

We show that any two-dimensional system with a non-zero \textit{symmetric} off-diagonal component of the resistance matrix, , must have the in-plane rotationa…

Optical pumping of electronic quantum Hall states with vortex light

Deric Session, Mahmoud Jalali Mehrabad, Nikil Paithankar +13

A fundamental requirement for quantum technologies is the ability to coherently control the interaction between electrons and photons. However, in many scenarios involving the inte…
