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

Focusing specifically on the recently retracted work by Zhang et al.[H. Zhang et al., Nature
(London) 556, 74 (2018) NATUAS 0028-0836 10.1038/nature26142; Retraction, Nature …

Majorana bound states are quasiparticle excitations localized at the boundaries of a
topologically nontrivial superconductor. They are zero-energy, charge-neutral, particle–hole …

We use the available transport measurements in the literature to develop a dataset for the
likely amount of disorder in semiconductor (InAs and InSb) materials which are used in …

Majorana zero modes (MZMs) are exotic excitations (in condensed matter systems) of
fundamental scientific interest and hold great promise as the basis of fault-tolerant …

The proximity effect in semiconductor-superconductor nanowires is expected to generate an
induced gap in the semiconductor. The magnitude of this induced gap, together with the …

We report electron transport studies of a thin InAs-Al hybrid semiconductor-superconductor
nanowire device using a four-terminal design. Compared to previous studies, thinner InAs …

In superconducting quantum circuits, aluminum is one of the most widely used materials. It is
currently also the superconductor of choice for the development of topological qubits …

Epitaxial semiconductor-superconductor (SM-SC) hybrid nanowires are potential candidates
for implementing Majorana qubits. Recent experimental and theoretical works show that …

Majorana bound states (MBSs) are quasiparticles that are their own antiparticles. They are
predicted to emerge as zero-energy modes localized at the boundary of a topological …
