Among the major avenues that are being pursued for realizing quantum bits, the Majorana-
based approach has been the most recent to be launched. It attempts to realize qubits that …

Realizing topological superconductivity and Majorana zero modes in the laboratory is a
major goal in condensed-matter physics. In this Review, we survey the current status of this …

We present measurements and simulations of semiconductor-superconductor
heterostructure devices that are consistent with the observation of topological …

Majorana zero modes—quasiparticle states localized at the boundaries of topological
superconductors—are expected to be ideal building blocks for fault-tolerant quantum …

Topological superconductivity can emerge from the combination of conventional
superconductivity in a metal and strong spin–orbit coupling in a semiconductor when they …

In the space of less than one decade, the search for Majorana quasiparticles in condensed
matter has become one of the hottest topics in physics. The aim of this review is to provide a …

Topological superconductors can support localized Majorana states at their boundaries,,,–.
These quasi-particle excitations obey non-Abelian statistics that can be used to encode and …

We report an experimental study of the scaling of zero-bias conductance peaks compatible
with Majorana zero modes as a function of magnetic field, tunnel coupling, and temperature …

We present designs for scalable quantum computers composed of qubits encoded in
aggregates of four or more Majorana zero modes, realized at the ends of topological …

The suggestion that non-reciprocal critical current (NRC) may be an intrinsic property of non-
centrosymmetric superconductors has generated renewed theoretical and experimental …
