1. Characterization of InAs-Al semiconductor-superconductor hybrid devices
University essay from Lunds universitet/Fasta tillståndets fysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionenAbstract : In this thesis we study charge and spin transport through InAs-Al nanowire superconductor-semiconductor hybrid devices. We focus on assessing the quality of the InAs-Al contact interface when using a weak HCl acid to wet-etch the nanowire surface prior to metal evaporation. READ MORE

2. Simulation of Majorana Bound States in Multi-Band Josephson Junction Nanowires
University essay from Lunds universitet/Fasta tillståndets fysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionenAbstract : Majorana bound states can be created at the ends of semiconducting nanowires using a combination of proximity-induced superconductivity, spin-orbit coupling and a magnetic eld. By adding a Josephson junction to this nanowire, four Majorana bound states can exist at the same time in the system. READ MORE

3. Majorana bound states in inhomogeneous nanowires
University essay from Lunds universitet/Fasta tillståndets fysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionenAbstract : Majorana bound states are in condensed matter physics quasiparticle excitations which can be found in so-called topological superconductors. They have lately received much attention since they have been predicted to be partly immune to decoherence and therefore suitable for quantum computation. READ MORE
