EurekAlert  November 12, 2024 An international team of researchers (India, USA – Indiana University) studied the transport signatures of unpaired Floquet Majorana fermions in the Josephson current of weakly linked, periodically driven topological superconductors. They obtained analytical expressions for the occupation of the Floquet Majorana fermions in the presence of weak coupling to thermal reservoirs, and showed that, similar to undriven topological superconductors, for sufficiently low temperatures and large systems the Josephson current involving Floquet Majorana fermions is in the phase difference across the junction and depends linearly on the coupling between superconductors. Unlike the static case, the amplitude of […]
