Spin-Orbit Protection of Induced Superconductivity in Majorana Nanowires

Spin-Orbit Protection of Induced Superconductivity in Majorana Nanowires

Spin-orbit interaction (SOI) plays a key role in creating Majorana zero modes in semiconductor nanowires proximity coupled to a superconductor. We track the evolution of the induced superconducting gap in InSb nanowires coupled to a NbTiN superconductor in a large range of magnetic field strengths and orientations. Based on realistic …
