Topological superconductors: a review

M Sato, Y Ando - Reports on Progress in Physics, 2017 - iopscience.iop.org
This review elaborates pedagogically on the fundamental concept, basic theory, expected
properties, and materials realizations of topological superconductors. The relation between …

Majorana fermions and topology in superconductors

M Sato, S Fujimoto - Journal of the Physical Society of Japan, 2016 - journals.jps.jp

Classification of reflection-symmetry-protected topological semimetals and nodal superconductors

CK Chiu, AP Schnyder - Physical Review B, 2014 - APS
While the topological classification of insulators, semimetals, and superconductors in terms
of nonspatial symmetries is well understood, less is known about topological states …

Robust doubly charged nodal lines and nodal surfaces in centrosymmetric systems

T Bzdušek, M Sigrist - Physical Review B, 2017 - APS
Weyl points in three spatial dimensions are characterized by a Z-valued charge—the Chern
number—which makes them stable against a wide range of perturbations. A set of Weyl …

Bogoliubov Fermi surfaces in superconductors with broken time-reversal symmetry

DF Agterberg, PMR Brydon, C Timm - Physical review letters, 2017 - APS
It is commonly believed that, in the absence of disorder or an external magnetic field, there
are three possible types of superconducting excitation gaps: The gap is nodeless, it has …

Odd-parity topological superconductor with nematic order: Application to

L Fu - Physical Review B, 2014 - APS
Cu x Bi 2 Se 3 was recently proposed as a promising candidate for time-reversal-invariant
