项目摘要
Non-technical abstract:The rapidly increasing need for high computing power requires a drastic paradigm shift away from traditional computers based on silicon transistors. A quantum computer, which makes use of quantum physics to store information and execute calculations is expected to be vastly more efficient and hence more powerful than a traditional computer. An attractive scheme towards quantum computation involves a newly-discovered class of materials, called topological insulators, where the interior is insulating but the surface is electrically conducting. Magnetic elements can be incorporated into such a topological insulator sample to achieve a curious phenomenon called quantum anomalous Hall effect. In this state the surface electrons are confined to the edges of the sample and flow without resistance. It has been predicted that quantum computation can be achieved in a device where this resistance-free edge current of the quantum anomalous Hall insulator is utilized. This project aims to test this prediction. Active education and outreach programs for graduate and undergraduate students, K-12 students and teachers, and the general public are integral part of planned work.Technical Abstract:The coupling of the spin-polarized dissipation-free edge state of a quantum anomalous Hall insulator and a conventional superconductor has been predicted to harbor a topological superconductivity phase that supports gapless Majorana fermion excitation at surfaces or edges of the sample. Topological superconductivity can reveal transformative new physics, such as non-Abelian statistics, and enable new architectures for topological quantum computation. In this project, the principal investigator pursues the quantum coherent oscillations as a function of vortices number in a micrometer-sized quantum anomalous Hall/superconductor Mach-Zehnder interferometer to ascertain the existence of the Majorana fermion and the non-Abelian braiding of such Majorana fermions in a quantum anomalous Hall/superconductor device with Corbino geometry. This project also explores the transport signatures of external electrical field induced topological superconductivity phase in quantum anomalous Hall/superconductor hybrid structures under homogenous magnetization and multiple chiral Majorana fermions in high-Chern-number quantum anomalous Hall/superconductor heterostructures. The success of the project will lead to significant new understanding of the microscopic mechanisms of topological superconductivity phase and carries far-reaching technological implications especially for the development of the topological quantum computer.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
非技术摘要:对高计算能力的快速增长的需求需要从基于硅晶体管的传统计算机进行急剧的范式转变。量子计算机利用量子物理来存储信息和执行计算,预计将比传统计算机更有效,因此更强大。一个有吸引力的量子计算方案涉及到一种新发现的材料,称为拓扑绝缘体,其内部是绝缘的,但表面是导电的。磁性元素可以被并入这样的拓扑绝缘体样品中,以实现称为量子反常霍尔效应的奇怪现象。在这种状态下,表面电子被限制在样品的边缘,并且没有阻力地流动。据预测,量子计算可以在利用量子反常霍尔绝缘体的无电阻边缘电流的器件中实现。本项目旨在验证这一预测。积极的教育和推广计划的研究生和本科生,K-12的学生和教师,以及广大公众是计划work.Technical摘要:自旋极化耗散自由边缘状态的量子反常霍尔绝缘体和传统的超导体的耦合已被预测到窝藏拓扑超导相,支持无隙马约拉纳费米子激发在表面或边缘的样品。拓扑超导性可以揭示变革性的新物理,如非阿贝尔统计,并为拓扑量子计算提供新的架构。在这个项目中,首席研究员追求量子相干振荡作为一个微米大小的量子反常霍尔/超导体马赫-曾德尔干涉仪中的涡旋数的函数,以确定马约拉纳费米子的存在和非阿贝尔编织这样的马约拉纳费米子在量子反常霍尔/超导体设备与科尔比诺几何。该项目还探索了均匀磁化下量子反常Hall/超导体混合结构中外电场诱导拓扑超导相的输运特征以及高Chern数量子反常Hall/超导体异质结构中多个手征Majorana费米子的输运特征。该项目的成功将导致对拓扑超导相微观机制的重大新认识,并带来深远的技术影响,特别是对拓扑量子计算机的发展。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命,并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估,被认为值得支持。
