A new study has uncovered important behavior in the flow of electric current through superconductors, potentially advancing the development of future technologies for controlled quantum information processing.
The study is co-authored by Babak Seradjeh, Professor of Physics within the College of Arts and Sciences at Indiana University Bloomington, with theoretical physicists Rekha Kumari and Arijit Kundu of the Indian institute of Technology Kanpur. While the study is theoretical, the research team confirmed their results through numerical simulations. Published in Physical Review Letters, the world's premier physics journal, the research focuses on "Floquet Majorana fermions" and their role in a phenomenon called the Josephson effect, which could lead to more precise control of the dynamics of driven quantum systems.
