Majorana single-charge transistor.
We study transport through a Coulomb blockaded topologically nontrivial superconducting wire (with Majorana end states) contacted by metallic leads. An exact formula for the current through this interacting Majorana single-charge transistor is derived in terms of wire spectral functions. A comprehensive picture follows from three different approaches. We find Coulomb oscillations with universal...
متن کاملCharge sensitivity of superconducting single-electron transistor
It is shown that the noise-limited charge sensitivity of a single-electron transistor using superconductors (of either SISIS or NISIN type) operating near the threshold of quasiparticle tunneling, can be considerably higher than that of a similar transistor made of normal metals or semiconductors. The reason is that the superconducting energy gap, in contrast to the Coulomb blockade, is not sme...
متن کاملNon-Abelian operations on Majorana fermions via single-charge control.
We demonstrate that non-Abelian rotations within the degenerate ground-state manifold of a set of Majorana fermions can be realized by the addition or removal of single electrons, and propose an implementation using Coulomb blockaded quantum dots. The exchange of electrons generates rotations similar to braiding, though not in real space. Unlike braiding operations, rotations by a continuum of ...
متن کاملNonadiabatic charge pumping in a hybrid single-electron transistor.
We study theoretically current quantization in the charge turnstile based on the superconductor-normal-metal single-electron transistor. The quantization accuracy is limited by either Andreev reflection or by Cooper-pair-electron cotunneling. The rates of these processes are calculated in the "above-the-threshold" regime when they compete directly with the lowest-order tunneling. By shaping the...
متن کاملMicromechanical electrometry of single - electron transistor island charge
We consider the possibility of using a micromechanical gate electrode located just above the island of a single-electron transistor to measure directly the fluctuating island charge due to tunnelling electrons.
