Majorana bound states constitute one of the simplest examples of emergent non-Abelian
excitations in condensed matter physics. A toy model proposed by Kitaev shows that such …

Cooper pairs occupy the ground state of superconductors and are typically composed of
maximally entangled electrons with opposite spin. In order to study the spin and …

Kitaev chains in quantum dot-superconductor arrays are a promising platform for the
realization of topological superconductivity. As recently demonstrated, even a two-site chain …

Semiconductor nanowires with proximity-induced superconductivity are leading contenders
for manifesting Majorana fermions in condensed matter,,,–. However, unambiguous …

The possibility of engineering artificial Kitaev chains in arrays of quantum dots coupled via
narrow superconducting regions has emerged as an attractive way to overcome the disorder …

The formation of a topological superconducting phase in a quantum-dot–based Kitaev chain
requires nearest neighbor crossed Andreev reflection and elastic cotunneling. Here, we …

We consider a one-dimensional Rashba nanowire in which multiple Andreev bound states
in the bulk of the nanowire form an Andreev band. We show that, under certain …

We report simultaneously acquired local and nonlocal transport spectroscopy in a phase-
biased planar Josephson junction based on an epitaxial InAs-Al hybrid two-dimensional …

In bulk superconductors or Josephson junctions formed in materials with spin-orbit
interaction, the critical current can depend on the direction of current flow or of applied …

We present conductance-matrix measurements of a three-terminal superconductor-
semiconductor hybrid device consisting of two normal leads and one superconducting lead …
