Hierarchical Majoranas in a Programmable Nanowire Network
Zhi-Cheng Yang, Thomas Iadecola, Claudio Chamon +1
We propose a hierarchical architecture for building "logical" Majorana zero modes using "physical" Majorana zero modes at the Y-junctions of a hexagonal network of semiconductor na…
Dissipationless conductance in a topological coaxial cable
Thomas Schuster, Thomas Iadecola, Claudio Chamon +2
We present a dynamical mechanism leading to dissipationless conductance, whose quantized value is controllable, in a (3+1)-dimensional electronic system. The mechanism is exemplifi…
Non-Abelian braiding of light
Thomas Iadecola, Thomas Schuster, Claudio Chamon
Many topological phenomena first proposed and observed in the context of electrons in solids have recently found counterparts in photonic and acoustic systems. In this work, we dem…
Occupation of topological Floquet bands in open systems
Thomas Iadecola, Titus Neupert, Claudio Chamon
Floquet topological insulators are noninteracting quantum systems that, when driven by a time-periodic field, are described by effective Hamiltonians whose bands carry nontrivial t…
Topological gaps without masses in driven graphene-like systems
Thomas Iadecola, Titus Neupert, Claudio Chamon
We illustrate the possibility of realizing band gaps in graphene-like systems that fall outside the existing classification of gapped Dirac Hamiltonians in terms of masses. As our…
Materials design from non-equilibrium steady states: driven graphene as a tunable semiconductor with topological properties
Thomas Iadecola, David Campbell, Claudio Chamon +4
Controlling the properties of materials by driving them out of equilibrium is an exciting prospect that has only recently begun to be explored. In this paper we give a striking the…
