The 1937 theoretical discovery of Majorana fermions—whose defining property is that they
are their own anti-particles—has since impacted diverse problems ranging from neutrino …

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 …

Majorana fermions (particles that are their own antiparticle) may or may not exist in nature as
elementary building blocks, but in condensed matter they can be constructed out of electron …

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

The physics of Anderson transitions between localized and metallic phases in disordered
systems is reviewed. The term “Anderson transition” is understood in a broad sense …

Topological superconductivity can emerge from the combination of conventional
superconductivity in a metal and strong spin–orbit coupling in a semiconductor when they …

We analyze a one-dimensional XXZ spin chain in a disordered magnetic field. As the main
probes of the system's behavior, we use the sensitivity of eigenstates to adiabatic …

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

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

We explore the high-temperature dynamics of the disordered, one-dimensional XXZ model
near the many-body localization (MBL) transition, focusing on the delocalized (ie,“metallic”) …
