Interaction effects in superconductor/quantum spin Hall devices: universal transport signatures and fractional Coulomb blockade
David Aasen, Shu-Ping Lee, Torsten Karzig +1
Interfacing s-wave superconductors and quantum spin Hall edges produces time-reversal-invariant topological superconductivity of a type that can not arise in strictly 1D systems. W…
Shortcuts to nonabelian braiding
Torsten Karzig, Falko Pientka, Gil Refael +1
Topological quantum information processing relies on adiabatic braiding of nonabelian quasiparticles. Performing the braiding operations in finite time introduces transitions out o…
Optimal Control of Majorana Zero Modes
Torsten Karzig, Armin Rahmani, Felix von Oppen +1
Braiding of Majorana zero modes provides a promising platform for quantum information processing, which is topologically protected against errors. Strictly speaking, however, the s…
Energy relaxation and thermalization of hot electrons in quantum wires
Torsten Karzig, Leonid I. Glazman, Felix von Oppen
We develop a theory of energy relaxation and thermalization of hot carriers in real quantum wires. Our theory is based on a controlled perturbative approach for large excitation en…
