Double Nanowires for Hybrid Quantum Devices

Thomas Kanne et al.

Summary: The core platform of several recent quantum device proposals relies on parallel 1D semiconductor channels connected by a superconducting strip, utilizing Andreev processes or topological effects. A strategy for synthesizing double InAs nanowires using III-V molecular beam epitaxy is presented, allowing for the deposition of a superconducting layer onto nanowires without breaking the vacuum in order to ensure pristine interfaces between the superconductor and the semiconductor nanowires. The method demonstrates the utility of high yield merged or separate parallel nanowires with full or half-shell superconductor coatings in complex quantum devices through electron transport measurements.

Conductance matrix symmetries of multiterminal semiconductor-superconductor devices

Andrea Maiani et al.

Summary: This paper presents a method for investigating Andreev bound states using nonlocal tunneling spectroscopy of semiconductor-superconductor hybrid devices. By exploiting microscopic and geometrical symmetries, information on transmission probabilities can be extracted from the conductance matrix. A numerical model is used to identify the direction and strength of spin-orbit coupling, and the effects of voltage bias and quasiparticle leakage on symmetry relations are investigated.

Interference and parity blockade in transport through a Majorana box

Maximilian Nitsch et al.

Summary: This paper theoretically investigates charge transport in a Majorana box and reveals the possibility of current blockade when two Majoranas couple to the same lead. The discovered parity blockade can be utilized for fast and high-fidelity qubit initialization and readout, as well as measuring decoherence times. Additionally, the paper demonstrates that transport can distinguish between different types of boxes.

Nonlocal conductance spectroscopy of Andreev bound states in gate-defined InAs/Al nanowires

Andreas Poschl et al.

Summary: The charge character of Andreev bound states (ABSs) in a three-terminal semiconductor-superconductor hybrid nanowire was measured using local and nonlocal tunneling spectroscopy. The ABSs exhibited distinct local and nonlocal conductance signatures, which changed with magnetic field and gate voltage. At high magnetic fields, the charge of ABSs oscillated around zero as a function of gate voltage, consistent with the total Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer charge of ABSs.

Nonlocal signatures of hybridization between quantum dot and Andreev bound states

Andreas Poschl et al.

Summary: In this study, local and nonlocal signatures of the hybridization between a quantum dot state and an extended Andreev bound state in a gate-defined InAs nanowire with multiple side probes were investigated. The characteristic spectroscopic pattern resulting from the hybridization was observed both locally, in the probe with the quantum dot, and nonlocally, in the tunnel conductance of a remote probe. The nonlocal signatures revealed the extended nature of the Andreev bound state.

Evidence for spin-polarized bound states in semiconductor-superconductor-ferromagnetic-insulator islands

S. Vaitiekenas et al.

Summary: Through Coulomb blockade transport studies, we found that cotunneling features in the even-odd bias spectra of nanowires grown with superconducting Al and ferromagnetic insulator EuS on overlapping facets are associated with spin-polarized Andreev levels. Experimental results indicate that the zero-field spin splitting exceeds the induced superconducting gap and the energy of subgap states can be controlled by electrostatic gates.

Asymmetric Little-Parks oscillations in full shell double nanowires

Alexandros Vekris et al.

Summary: Little-Parks oscillations in a hollow superconducting cylinder are typically symmetric, but can become asymmetric when a small misalignment of the applied parallel field with respect to the axis of the nanowires occurs. This asymmetry is observed in both destructive and non-destructive regimes, with superconductivity either destroyed or depressed but not fully destroyed at certain flux values.

Conductance asymmetries in mesoscopic superconducting devices due to finite bias

Andre Melo et al.

Summary: This study identifies a mechanism that leads to conductance asymmetries without the need to consider quasiparticle poisoning. By investigating the effects of finite bias and incorporating voltage dependence in tunnel barrier transparency, significant conductance asymmetries were found for realistic device parameters. Identifying physical origin of conductance asymmetries is crucial, as finite-bias effects are not harmful to the performance of a topological qubit. Features are identified to experimentally determine whether finite-bias effects are the source of conductance asymmetries.

Transient dynamics of a magnetic impurity coupled to superconducting electrodes: Exact numerics versus perturbation theory

R. Seoane Souto et al.

Summary: Impurities coupled to superconductors provide a controlled platform to study the interplay of superconductivity, many-body interactions, and nonequilibrium physics. Local interactions at the impurity induce transitions in the ground state and affect supercurrent behavior. Different relaxation mechanisms influence the behavior of trapped quasiparticles in the system, with Coulomb interactions not being effective for relaxation in certain cases. Voltage-biased junctions provide an effective relaxation mechanism for trapped quasiparticles.

Confinement-induced zero-bias peaks in conventional superconductor hybrids

Jorge Cayao et al.

Summary: Quasi-zero-energy states can form naturally in any superconducting hybrid junction due to confinement effects, independent of spin fields and topology. These topologically trivial quasi-zero-energy states produce zero-bias conductance peaks similar to Majorana signatures, but with different peak height and stability characteristics.

Local and nonlocal quantum transport due to Andreev bound states in finite Rashba nanowires with superconducting and normal sections

Richard Hess et al.

Summary: The study reveals that Andreev bound states (ABSs) localized near the ends of a partially covered superconducting Rashba nanowire can be pinned to zero energy over a wide range of magnetic field strengths, even in the nontopological regime. The probability density of ABS is nonzero throughout the nanowire, and differential-conductance calculations show correlated zero-bias peaks (ZBP) at both ends of the nanowire. Additionally, when a second normal section hosts an additional ABS at the opposite end of the superconducting section, the combined ABSs can mimic the closing and reopening of the bulk gap in conductance, resembling Majorana bound states (MBSs) even in the nontopological regime.

Closing of the induced gap in a hybrid superconductor-semiconductor nanowire

D. Puglia et al.

Summary: In this study, conductance-matrix measurements were conducted in long, three-terminal hybrid superconductor-semiconductor nanowires to investigate a magnetic-field-driven, topological quantum phase transition. By analyzing nonlocal conductance, the closure of the excitation gap in the bulk of the semiconductor was identified before the appearance of zero-bias peaks, ruling out spurious gap-closure signatures from localized states. It was observed that after the gap closes, nonlocal signals and zero-bias peaks fluctuated strongly at both ends, which was inconsistent with a simple picture of clean topological superconductivity.
