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 …

Inhomogeneous superconductors can host electronic excitations, known as Andreev bound
states (ABSs), below the superconducting energy gap. With the advent of topological …

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

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 …

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 …

During the last ten years, superconducting circuits have passed from being interesting
physical devices to becoming contenders for near-future useful and scalable quantum …

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 …

In recent years, the notion of'Quantum Materials' has emerged as a powerful unifying
concept across diverse fields of science and engineering, from condensed-matter and …

Motivated by the need to understand and simulate the ubiquitous experimentally observed
zero-bias conductance peaks in superconductor-semiconductor hybrid structures, we …

Many important phenomena in quantum devices are dynamic, meaning that they cannot be
studied using time-averaged measurements alone. Experiments that measure such transient …
