Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Impurity effect for Majorana fermions hosted by vortices in topological superconductors has been clarified. The flux-flow resistivity is influenced by the impurity effect given by the coherence factor of the Majorana fermions. Non-equilibrium properties of the Majorana fermions under ac electric field has also been clarified by using a developed program to calculate Green's functions in the Keldysh formalism.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
本研究の成果により、マヨラナフェルミオンの干渉に関する性質を決めるコヒーレンス因子が動的性質に重要な寄与をすることが明らかになった。干渉効果は量子力学的な性質であり、マヨラナフェルミオンでは生成と消滅の演算子が等しいという際立った特徴を直接観測する道を拓く。コヒーレンス因子は、中性子非弾性散乱や準粒子干渉を利用すれば観測できると期待される。
