Kavli Affiliate: Michael Wimmer | First 5 Authors: Alberto Bordin, Chun-Xiao Liu, Tom Dvir, Francesco Zatelli, Sebastiaan L. D. ten Haaf | Summary: Majorana zero modes (MZMs) are non-Abelian excitations predicted to emerge at the edges of topological superconductors. One proposal for realizing a topological superconductor in one dimension involves a chain of spinless fermions, […]
Kavli Affiliate: Menno Veldhorst | First 5 Authors: Chien-An Wang, Valentin John, Hanifa Tidjani, Cécile X. Yu, Alexander Ivlev | Summary: Qubits that can be efficiently controlled are pivotal in the development of scalable quantum hardware. Resonant control is commonly embraced to execute high-fidelity quantum gates but demands integration of high-frequency oscillating signals and results […]

Ivlev | Summary: Qubits that can be efficiently controlled are essential for the development of scalable quantum hardware. While resonant control is used to execute high-fidelity quantum gates, the scalability is challenged by the integration of […]
Kavli Affiliate: Simon Groblacher | First 5 Authors: Alexander Rolf Korsch, Niccolò Fiaschi, Simon Gröblacher, , | Summary: In recent years, nanomechanical oscillators in thin films of superfluid helium have attracted attention in the field of optomechanics due to their exceptionally low mechanical dissipation and optical scattering. Mechanical excitations in superfluid thin films – so-called […]
Kavli Affiliate: Herre S. J. Van Der Zant | First 5 Authors: Alessio Vegliante, Saleta Fernandez, Ricardo Ortiz, Manuel Vilas-Varela, Thomas Baum | Summary: Open-shell polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) represent promising building blocks for carbon-based functional magnetic materials. Their magnetic properties stem from the presence of unpaired electrons localized in radical states of $pi$ character. […]
Kavli Affiliate: Michael Wimmer | First 5 Authors: Juan Daniel Torres Luna, A. Mert Bozkurt, Michael Wimmer, Chun-Xiao Liu, | Summary: Connecting quantum dots through Andreev bound states in a semiconductor-superconductor hybrid provides a platform to create a Kitaev chain. Interestingly, in a double quantum dot, a pair of poor man’s Majorana zero modes can […]

Kavli Affiliate: Natalia Chepiga | First 5 Authors: Natalia Chepiga, , , , | Summary: We study dimerization transitions in a frustrated spin-3 chain with next-nearest neighbor and three-site interactions. We show that two independent coupling constants of the model are sufficient to fine-tune the system to the critical point in the Wess-Zumino-Witten SU(2)$_6$ universality […]
