Anomalous modulation of a zero-bias peak in a hybrid nanowire-superconductor device.
We report on transport measurements of an InAs nanowire coupled to niobium nitride leads at high magnetic fields. We observe a zero-bias anomaly (ZBA) in the differential conductance of the nanowire for certain ranges of magnetic field and chemical potential. The ZBA can oscillate in width with either the magnetic field or chemical potential; it can even split and re-form. We discuss how our re...
متن کاملParity independence of the zero-bias conductance peak in a nanowire based topological superconductor-quantum dot hybrid device
We explore the signatures of Majorana fermions in a nanowire based topological superconductor-quantum dot-topological superconductor hybrid device by charge transport measurements. At zero magnetic field, well-defined Coulomb diamonds and the Kondo effect are observed. Under the application of a finite, sufficiently strong magnetic field, a zero-bias conductance peak structure is observed. It i...
متن کاملObservation of strong-coupling superconductivity and anomalous zero-bias tunneling conductance peak in MgCNi3
Tunneling spectra of the intermetallic perovskite superconductor MgCNi3 were obtained using mechanical and planar junctions prepared on polycrystalline samples. A clear gap feature corresponding to the bulk phase (Tc ≈ 7.6 K) was observed. The superconducting energy gap ∆(0) was found to be approximately 1.5 meV, with 2∆/kBTc ≈ 4.6. Compared with the weak-coupling value of 2∆/kBTc ≈ 3.53, our r...
متن کاملZero Bias Conductance Peak Enhancement in Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8/Pb Tunneling Junctions
We found strong zero bias conductance peak enhancement in Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8 by tunneling in the ab-plane direction. Our results are consistent with recent studies on Andreev reflection between a d-wave superconductor and normal metal. We have also observed exotic behaviors of the conductance peak if the counter electrode is a conventional superconductor. If these characteristics are better understo...
متن کاملCoupled Brownian motors: Anomalous hysteresis and zero-bias negative conductance
– We introduce a model of interacting Brownian particles in a symmetric, periodic potential that undergoes a noise-induced non-equilibrium phase transition. The associated spontaneous symmetry breaking entails a ratchet-like transport mechanism. In response to an external force we identify several novel features; among the most prominent being a zero-bias negative conductance and a prima facie ...
