Spin-orbit coupling (SOC) relates to the interaction between an electron's motion and its spin
and is ubiquitous in solid-state systems. Although the effect of SOC in normal-state …

Topological superconductivity supports exotic Majorana bound states (MBS) which are
chargeless zero-energy emergent quasiparticles. With their non-Abelian exchange statistics …

Spin-valve structures in which a change of magnetic configuration is responsible for
magnetoresistance led to impressive advances in spintronics, focusing on magnetically …

As the complexity of quantum systems such as quantum bit arrays increases, efforts to

A hybrid semiconductor-superconductor nanowire on the top of a magnetic film in the stripe
phase experiences a magnetic texture from the underlying fringing fields. The Zeeman …

Majorana zero modes in superconductor-nanowire hybrid structures are a promising

Both the physics and applications of fermionic symmetry-protected topological phases rely
heavily on a principle known as bulk-boundary correspondence, which predicts the …

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 approach …

We study how the shape of a periodic magnetic field affects the presence of Majorana bound
states (MBS) in a nanowire-superconductor system. Motivated by the field configurations that …
