Influence of disorder on antidot vortex Majorana states in 3D topological insulators
Rafał Rechciński, Aleksei Khindanov, Dmitry I. Pikulin +5
Topological insulator/superconductor two-dimensional heterostructures are promising candidates for realizing topological superconductivity and Majorana modes. In these systems, a v…
Hawking fragmentation and Hawking attenuation in Weyl semimetals
Daniel Sabsovich, Paul Wunderlich, Victor Fleurov +3
We study black and white hole analogues in Weyl semimetals with inhomogenous nodal tilts. We study how the presence of a microscopic lattice, giving rise to low-energy fermion doub…
Comparing tunneling spectroscopy and charge sensing of Andreev bound states in a semiconductor-superconductor hybrid nanowire structure
Deividas Sabonis, David van Zanten, Judith Suter +7
Transport studies of Andreev bound states (ABSs) are complicated by the interplay of charging effects and superconductivity. Here, we compare transport approaches to ABS spectrosco…
Protocol to identify a topological superconducting phase in a three-terminal device
Dmitry I. Pikulin, Bernard van Heck, Torsten Karzig +13
We develop a protocol to determine the presence and extent of a topological phase with Majorana zero modes in a hybrid superconductor-semiconductor device. The protocol is based on…
Proposal for a scalable charging-energy-protected topological qubit in a quantum spin Hall system
Dmitry I. Pikulin
The quantum spin Hall edge is predicted to reliably produce Majorana zero modes on the border between magnetic insulator- and superconductor-proximitized regions of the edge. The d…
Majorana signatures in charge transport through a topological superconducting double-island system
Jukka I. Väyrynen, Dmitry I. Pikulin, Roman M. Lutchyn
We investigate the dynamics of a charge qubit consisting of two Coulomb-blockaded islands hosting Majorana zero modes. The frequency of the qubit is determined by coherent single-e…
