Quantum dot scanning tunneling microscopy for Majorana bound states in continuum

We propose a device composed of a quantum dot (QD) connected to a normal metal lead to detect Majorana bound states (MBSs), which are formed at the ends of a topological superconductor nanowire (TSNW) and coupled to the lead with spin-dependent hybridization strengths. The information of the MBSs le...
