Charging energy renormalization in topological Cooper pair boxes

ORAL

Abstract

I will discuss the renormalization of the charging energy in a topological superconductor islands connected to a ground by a weak link. I will show analytical results on the almost transparent junction and numerical results compounding the analytical conclusions. I will discuss the consequences of the results to the design of topological qubits and scalable quantum computer architectures.
