Plasmon decay and non-equilibrium steady states in Josephson junction chains

Lucia Vigliotti, Andrew P. Higginbotham, Maksym Serbyn

Josephson junction (JJ) chains combine the coherence of superconductivity with the controllability of microwave-frequency circuits, making them a powerful platform for circuit quan…

Transport signatures of quasiparticle poisoning in a Majorana island

S. M. Albrecht, E. B. Hansen, A. P. Higginbotham +7

We investigate effects of quasiparticle poisoning in a Majorana island with strong tunnel coupling to normal-metal leads. In addition to the main Coulomb blockade diamonds, "shadow…

Exponential Protection of Zero Modes in Majorana Islands

S. M. Albrecht, A. P. Higginbotham, M. Madsen +5

Majorana zero modes are quasiparticle excitations in condensed matter systems that have been proposed as building blocks of fault-tolerant quantum computers [1]. They are expected…

Parity lifetime of bound states in a proximitized semiconductor nanowire

A. P. Higginbotham, S. M. Albrecht, G. Kirsanskas +7

Quasiparticle excitations can compromise the performance of superconducting devices, causing high frequency dissipation, decoherence in Josephson qubits, and braiding errors in pro…

Coherence and Screening in Multi-Electron Spin Qubits

A. P. Higginbotham, F. Kuemmeth, M. P. Hanson +2

The performance of multi-electron spin qubits is examined by comparing exchange oscillations in coupled single-electron and multi-electron quantum dots in the same device. Fast (>…
