Two electrons interacting at a mesoscopic beam splitter.

The nonlinear response of a beam splitter to the coincident arrival of interacting particles enables numerous applications in quantum engineering and metrology. Yet, it poses considerable challenges to control interactions on the individual particle level. Here, we probe the coincidence correlations at a mesoscopic constriction between individual ballistic electrons in a system with unscreened Coulomb interactions and introduce concepts to quantify the associated parametric nonlinearity.

Tunable effective length of fractional Josephson junctions.

Topological Josephson junctions (TJJs) have been a subject of widespread interest due to their hosting of Majorana zero modes. In long junctions, i.e.

Electron-Tunneling-Assisted Non-Abelian Braiding of Rotating Majorana Bound States.

It has been argued that fluctuations of fermion parity are harmful for the demonstration of non-Abelian anyonic statistics. Here, we demonstrate a striking exception in which such fluctuations are actively used. We present a theory of coherent electron transport from a tunneling tip into a Corbino geometry Josephson junction where four Majorana bound states (MBSs) rotate.

Superconducting Quantum Interference in Edge State Josephson Junctions.

We study superconducting quantum interference in a Josephson junction linked via edge states in two-dimensional (2D) insulators. We consider two scenarios in which the 2D insulator is either a topological or a trivial insulator supporting one-dimensional (1D) helical or nonhelical edge states, respectively. In equilibrium, we find that the qualitative dependence of critical supercurrent on the flux through the junction is insensitive to the helical nature of the mediating states and can, therefore, not be used to verify the topological features of the underlying insulator.

Aharonov-Bohm Oscillations in Minimally Twisted Bilayer Graphene.

We investigate transport in the network of valley Hall states that emerges in minimally twisted bilayer graphene under interlayer bias. To this aim, we construct a scattering theory that captures the network physics. In the absence of forward scattering, symmetries constrain the network model to a single parameter that interpolates between one-dimensional chiral zigzag modes and pseudo-Landau levels.
