Topological Phase Detection in Rashba Nanowires with a Quantum Dot
Denis Chevallier, Paweł Szumniak, Silas Hoffman +2
We study theoretically the detection of the topological phase transition occurring in Rashba nanowires with proximity-induced superconductivity using a quantum dot. The bulk states…
Fingerprints of Majorana fermions in current-correlations measurements from a superconducting tunnel microscope
Pierre Devillard, Denis Chevallier, Mathias Albert
We compute various current correlation functions of electrons flowing from a topological nanowire to the tip of a superconducting scanning tunnel microscope and identify fingerprin…
Spin-dependent coupling between quantum dots and topological quantum wires
Silas Hoffman, Denis Chevallier, Daniel Loss +1
Considering Rashba quantum wires with a proximity-induced superconducting gap as physical realizations of Majorana fermions and quantum dots, we calculate the overlap of the Majora…
Spin and Charge Signatures of Topological Superconductivity in Rashba Nanowires
Paweł Szumniak, Denis Chevallier, Daniel Loss +1
We consider a Rashba nanowire with proximity gap which can be brought into the topological phase by tuning external magnetic field or chemical potential. We study spin and charge o…
