Cooper quartets and fractional vortices in frustrated Josephson junction dice arrays
Erik Lennart Weerda, Olav F. Syljuåsen, Matteo Rizzi +1
Superconductivity mediated by Cooper quartets of charge 4e is a phenomenon of key importance for both the understanding of certain exotic superconductors and the engineering of qua…
The poor man's Majorana tetron
Maximilian Nitsch, Lorenzo Maffi, Virgil V. Baran +4
The Majorana tetron is a prototypical topological qubit stemming from the ground state degeneracy of a superconducting island hosting four Majorana modes. This degeneracy manifests…
Majorana modes in quantum dots coupled via a floating superconducting island
R. Seoane Souto, V. V. Baran, M. Nitsch +4
Majorana modes can be engineered in arrays where quantum dots (QDs) are coupled via grounded superconductors, effectively realizing an artificial Kitaev chain. Minimal Kitaev chain…
