چکیده
We theoretically explore the Floquet generation of Majorana end modes (MEMs; both regular 0 and anomalous $\ensuremath{\pi}$ modes) implementing a periodic sinusoidal modulation in chemical potential an experimentally feasible setup based on one-dimensional chain magnetic impurity atoms having spin spiral configuration (out-of-plane N\'eel type) fabricated surface common bulk $s$-wave superconductor. obtain rich phase diagram parameter space, highlighting possibility generating multiple 0- $\ensuremath{\pi}$-MEMs localized at chain. also study real-time evolution these emergent MEMs, especially when they start to appear time domain. These MEMs are topologically characterized by employing dynamical winding number. observe that existing perturbative analysis is unable explain numerical findings, indicating complex mechanism behind formation Shiba minigap, which characteristically distinct from other setups, e.g., Rashba nanowire model. discuss possible experimental parameters connection our Our work paves way realize magnet-superconductor heterostructure.

Physics of Majorana modes in interacting helical liquid
As an attempt to understand and search for the existence of Majorana zero mode, we study the topological quantum phase transition and also the nature of this transition in helical liquid system, which appears in different physical systems. We present Majorana-Ising transition along with the phase boundary in the presence of interaction. We show the appearance of Majorana mode under the renormal...
متن کاملSupply Chain Coordination through Lead Time Crashing in a Socially Responsible Supply Chain Considering Transportation Modes and Carbon Emissions Tax
In this paper, a socially responsible supply chain consisting of one supplier and one retailer is proposed. The supplier decides on replenishment cycle multiplier and the retailer invests in corporate social responsibility (CSR) and decides on the order-up-to-level under a periodic review replenishment policy. The retailer’s decisions impact on the supplier’s probability as well as the supply c...
متن کاملTopological superconducting phase in helical Shiba chains
Recently, it has been suggested that topological superconductivity and Majorana end states can be realized in a chain of magnetic impurities on the surface of an s-wave superconductor when the magnetic moments form a spin helix as a result of the RKKY interaction mediated by the superconducting substrate. Here, we investigate this scenario theoretically by developing a tight-binding Bogoliubov-...
متن کاملTopological superconducting phase and Majorana bound states in Shiba chains
Chains of magnetic adatoms on a conventional superconducting substrate constitute a promising venue for realizing topological superconductivity and Majorana end states. Here, we give a brief overview over recent attempts to describe these systems theoretically, emphasizing how the topological phase emerges from the physics of individual magnetic impurities and their associated Shiba states.
متن کاملChiral Majorana fermion modes in a quantum anomalous Hall insulator-superconductor structure.
Majorana fermion is a hypothetical particle that is its own antiparticle. We report transport measurements that suggest the existence of one-dimensional chiral Majorana fermion modes in the hybrid system of a quantum anomalous Hall insulator thin film coupled with a superconductor. As the external magnetic field is swept, half-integer quantized conductance plateaus are observed at the locations...
