Fluxoid solitons in superconducting tapered tubes and bottlenecks
Tim Kokkeler, Mateo Uldemolins, Francisco Lobo +3
A thin-walled tubular superconductor develops a quantized fluxoid in the presence of an axial magnetic field. The fluxoid corresponds to the number of phase windings of the superco…
Non-Hermitian skin effect and electronic nonlocal transport
Carlos Payá, Oliver Solow, Elsa Prada +2
Open quantum systems governed by non-Hermitian effective Hamiltonians exhibit unique phenomena, such as the non-Hermitian skin effect, where eigenstates localize at system boundari…
Effective conduction-band model for zincblende III-V semiconductors in the presence of strain: tuning the properties of bulk crystals and nanostructures
Samuel D. Escribano, Alfredo Levy Yeyati, Elsa Prada
Strain provides a powerful knob to tailor the electronic properties of semiconductors. Simple yet accurate approximations that capture strain effects in demanding simulations of me…
Solitonic Andreev spin qubits from Andreev states in Corbino Josephson junctions
Pablo San-Jose, Elsa Prada
We study a novel type of solitonic Andreev bound state (ABS) in a Corbino-geometry Josephson junction created on a 2DEG. The Josephson junction is subjected to a weak magnetic flux…
Fluxoid valve effect in full-shell nanowire Josephson junctions
Carlos Payá, F. J. Matute-Cañadas, A. Levy Yeyati +3
We introduce a new type of supercurrent valve based on full-shell nanowires. These hybrid wires consist of a semiconductor core fully wrapped in a thin superconductor shell and sub…
Josephson effect and critical currents in trivial and topological full-shell hybrid nanowires
Carlos Payá, Ramón Aguado, Pablo San-Jose +1
We perform microscopic numerical simulations of the Josephson effect through short junctions between two full-shell hybrid nanowires, comprised of a semiconductor core fully wrappe…
