Even-odd effect and Majorana states in full-shell nanowires

Full-shell nanowires (semiconducting nanowires fully coated with a superconducting shell) have been recently presented as an alternative means to create Majorana zero modes. In contrast to partially coated nanowires, it has been argued that full-shell nanowires do not require high magnetic fields an...
