摘要：

We will briefly review the progress on building Majorana zero-modes in InAs/Al nanostructures, including InAs nanowires with half  or fully covered Al shell, selectively area grown (SAG) hybrid networks, and 2DEG InAs with epitaxy Al which was done by my colleges. Semiconductor-superconductor epitaxy provides the material a hard-induced superconducting gap, which is crucial for topological protection. A moderate coupling between semiconductor and superconductor allows coalesce Andreev bound states into Majorana modes with an external magnetic field. We have observed such a zero-mode in hybrid nanowires, 2DEGs and SAG networks. We will also demonstrate a novel means of creating Majorana zero modes using magnetic flux applied to a full superconducting shell surrounding a semiconducting nanowire core, unifying approaches based on proximitized nanowires and vortices in topological superconductors.

We have been also developing several protypes of Majorana-qubit devices, which aim to demonstrate Majorana fusion rules and qubit.
