קולוקוויום בפיזיקה: Superconducting topological phases, theory and application

Abstract:

In this talk, I will give a brief overview of topological phases - the  field of the 2016 Nobel laureates. Particularly, theories of superconducting topological phases in general and their practical realization in 1D will be discussed. I will describe the current experimental progress in the fabrication and the observation of Majorana Zero Mode at the ends of topological superconducting wires and their emergence as a key element for future quantum topological computation. Finally, I will discuss theoretical and experimental challenges in the quest for novel topological states of matter.
