This project aims to explore the existence of Majorana bound states in a novel Germanium/Silicon-Germanium material system. It seeks to provide evidence for these quasiparticle excitations, which could have significant implications for quantum computing technologies.
Each particle has its antiparticle, and upon bringing them in close vicinity, they annihilate (they disappear). A fundamental question arises: what happens if a particle is its own antiparticle?
Ettore Majorana predicted their existence and evidence has been put forward for the existence of such a state of matter in the form of quasiparticle excitations in hybrid semiconductor-superconductor devices.
Research activites so far has concentrated on InAs nanowires, planar InAs and InSb nanowires.
