parafermionic zero modes without Andreev backscattering from the fractional quantum Hall state
Yahya Alavirad, David Clarke, Amit Nag +1
Parafermionic zero modes are a novel set of excitations displaying non-Abelian statistics somewhat richer than that of Majorana modes. These modes are predicted to occur when nearb…
Probability and (Braiding) Statistics in Majorana nanowires
David J. Clarke, Jay D. Sau, Sankar Das Sarma
Given recent progress in the realization of Majorana zero modes in semiconducting nanowires with proximity-induced superconductivity, a crucial next step is to attempt an experimen…
Role of dissipation in realistic Majorana nanowires
Chun-Xiao Liu, Jay D. Sau, S. Das Sarma
We carry out a realistic simulation of Majorana nanowires in order to understand the latest high- quality experimental data [H. Zhang et al., arXiv:1603.04069 (2016)] and, in the p…
Conductance spectroscopy of nontopological-topological superconductor junctions
F. Setiawan, William S. Cole, Jay D. Sau +1
We calculate the zero-temperature differential conductance of a voltage-biased one-dimensional junction between a nontopological and a topological superconductor for arbitr…
-periodic dissipationless ac Josephson effect on a quantum spin-Hall edge via a Quantum magnetic impurity
Hoi-Yin Hui, Jay D. Sau
Time-reversal invariance places strong constraints on the properties of the quantum spin Hall edge. One such restriction is the inevitability of dissipation in a Josephson junction…
Detecting topological superconductivity using low-frequency doubled Shapiro steps
Jay D. Sau, F. Setiawan
The fractional Josephson effect has been observed in many instances as a signature of a topological superconducting state containing zero-energy Majorana modes. We present a nontop…
