Differential current noise as an identifier of Andreev bound states that induce nearly quantized conductance plateaus
Zhan Cao, Gu Zhang, Hao Zhang +4
Quantized conductance plateaus, a celebrated hallmark of Majorana bound states (MBSs) predicted a decade ago, have recently been observed with small deviations in iron-based superc…
Probing electron-hole weights of an Andreev bound state by transient currents
Zhan Cao, Gu Zhang, Hao Zhang +4
Andreev bound states (ABSs) are localized quantum states that contain both electron and hole components. They ubiquitously reside in inhomogeneous superconducting systems. Followin…
Numerical study of PbTe-Pb hybrid nanowires for engineering Majorana zero modes
Zhan Cao, Dong E. Liu, Wan-Xiu He +3
Epitaxial semiconductor-superconductor (SM-SC) hybrid nanowires are potential candidates for implementing Majorana qubits. Recent experimental and theoretical works show that charg…
Performance of the T-matrix based master equation for Coulomb drag in double quantum dots
Wan-Xiu He, Zhan Cao, Gao-Yang Li +4
Recently, novel Coulomb drag mechanisms in capacitively coupled double quantum dots were uncovered by the T-matrix based master equation (TME). The TME is so far the primary approa…
Decays of Majorana or Andreev oscillations induced by steplike spin-orbit coupling
Zhan Cao, Hao Zhang, Hai-Feng Lü +3
The Majorana zero mode in the semiconductor-superconductor nanowire is one of the promising candidates for topological quantum computing. Recently, in islands of nanowires, subgap-…
Thermoelectric unipolar spin battery in a suspended carbon nanotube
Zhan Cao, Tie-Feng Fang, Wan-Xiu He +1
A quantum dot formed in a suspended carbon nanotube exposed to an external magnetic field is predicted to act as a thermoelectric unipolar spin battery which generates pure spin cu…
