电子散射对纳米线拓扑性质的影响:来自无序和超晶格的Majorana费米子

Effects of electron scattering on the topological properties of nanowires: Majorana fermions from disorder and superlattices

I. Adagideli, M. Wimmer, A. Teker

摘要:

我们专注于诱导拓扑状态的规则,或不规则的散射(i)p波超导导线和(ii)Rashba线接近耦合到s波超导体。我们发现,这两个系统的拓扑性质是根本不同的:在p波线,无序一般有一个不利的影响,拓扑秩序和拓扑状态被破坏超过临界无序强度。相反,在Rashba线,这是相关的最近的实验,无序可以{ \it诱导}拓扑秩序,减少了需要准弹道样品获得马约拉纳费米子。此外,我们发现,拓扑状态的总相空间面积是保守的长无序Rashba线,甚至可以在适当的工程超晶格势增加。

英文摘要:

We focus on inducing topological state from regular, or irregular scattering in (i) p-wave superconducting wires and (ii) Rashba wires proximity coupled to an s-wave superconductor. We find that contrary to common expectations the topological properties of both systems are fundamentally different: In p-wave wires, disorder generally has a detrimental effect on the topological order and the topological state is destroyed beyond a critical disorder strength. In contrast, in Rashba wires, which are relevant for recent experiments, disorder can {\it induce} topological order, reducing the need for quasiballistic samples to obtain Majorana fermions. Moreover, we find that the total phase space area of the topological state is conserved for long disordered Rashba wires, and can even be increased in an appropriately engineered superlattice potential.
