InAs-Al Hybrid Devices Passing the Topological Gap Protocol
Morteza Aghaee, Arun Akkala, Zulfi Alam +124
We present measurements and simulations of semiconductor-superconductor heterostructure devices that are consistent with the observation of topological superconductivity and Majora…
Quantum impurity models using superpositions of fermionic Gaussian states: Practical methods and applications
Samuel Boutin, Bela Bauer
The coherent superposition of non-orthogonal fermionic Gaussian states has been shown to be an efficient approximation to the ground states of quantum impurity problems [Bravyi and…
Topological Josephson Bifurcation Amplifier: Semiclassical theory
Samuel Boutin, Pedro L. S. Lopes, Anqi Mu +2
Amplifiers based on Josephson junctions allow for a fast and noninvasive readout of superconducting qubits. Motivated by the ongoing progress toward the realization of fault-tolera…
Optimized micromagnet geometries for Majorana zero modes in low g-factor materials
Sara Turcotte, Samuel Boutin, Julien Camirand Lemyre +2
Solid-state experimental realizations of Majorana bound states are based on materials with strong intrinsic spin-orbit interactions. In this paper, we explore an alternative approa…
Microwave signatures of and fractional Josephson effects
Pedro L. S. Lopes, Samuel Boutin, Philippe Karan +2
We present a many-body exact diagonalization study of the and Josephson effects in circuit quantum electrodynamics architectures. Numerical simulation…
Majorana bound state engineering via efficient real-space parameter optimization
Samuel Boutin, Julien Camirand Lemyre, Ion Garate
Recent progress toward the fabrication of Majorana-based qubits has sparked the need for systematic approaches to optimize experimentally relevant parameters for the realization of…
