Title
Emergent Majorana States in Atomic-Scale Magnet-Superconductor Hybrid Systems
Abstract
Modern solid state physics has become greatly inspired by particle physics theories in recent years. Outstanding examples are Skyrmions or Majoranas, i.e. particles being their own antiparticles. Majorana states in hybrid solid state systems offer great potential for future quantum computing concepts. The lecture will focus on the exciting search for Majoranas in atomic-scale model systems consisting of bottom-up fabricated spin chains on elemental superconducting substrates.
