Topological superconductivity in semiconductor-superconductor hybrid structures
ORAL · Invited
Abstract
Several proposals for inducing p-wave superconductivity in semiconductors proximitized by s-wave superconductors have been put forward. This includes systems where time-reversal symmetry is broken by either Zeeman energy or by phase differences in the proximitizing superconductors. In this talk, I discuss the detailed modeling of such structures and present results how for the comparison with experimental data for local and nonlocal conductance measurements. Finally, I discuss possible next steps in the search for nonabelian effects of Majorana zero modes.
