New heterostructure design advances quantum technology

Magnetic-superconductive hybrid systems are essential to unlock topological superconductivity, a state that could host Majorana modes with potential applications in quantum computer tolerant. However, the creation of stable and controllable interfaces between magnetic materials and superconductive materials remains a challenge.

Traditional systems often fight with network discrepancies, complex interfacial interactions and disorders, which can obscure the signatures of topological states or imitate them with trivial phenomena. Reaching precise control over magnetic structures on a atomic scale has been a long -standing challenge in this area.

Published in Future materialsResearchers have developed a new CRTE sub-monocoucou₂/ NBSE₂ heterostructure. By carefully depositing CR and TE on NBSE₂ Substrate, they observed a process of growth in two stages: a form of CR-TET layer initial tablet with a network constant of 0.35 nm, followed by the formation of an atomically flat CRT₂ Mono -ouche with a network constant of 0.39 nm. The reception of the CR-TE layer can trigger a reconstruction of stressful relief, which creates band patterns with edges that host localized magnetic moments, effectively forming one-dimensional magnetic chains.

Tunneling spectroscopy (STS) to scan have confirmed the presence of these moments, as well as the states of Yu-Shiba-Rusinov (YSR) on the edges, highlighting the interaction between the atoms of Magnetic CRPs and the NBSE Superconductor₂ substrate. This periodic structure induced by periodic stress offers a promising platform for topological quantum computer science and the pursuit of Majorana modes.

For the future, the team plans to refine this platform by optimizing the control of deformations by the receipt, the engineering of the substrate and the dynamic modulation techniques. Future research will explore how these one -dimensional magnetic chains can be adapted to specific quantum applications, potentially allowing the detection of topological superconductivity and Majorana modes. Large -scale statistical studies and advanced measures resolved to spin could further disentangle the complex relationship between strain, magnetism and superconductivity in this system.

This work marks an important step towards practical quantum technologies. By taking advantage of the inadequacy of the network to design one -dimensional magnetic chains, the CRTE₂/ NBSE₂ The heterostructure offers a platform of versatile materials for quantum spintronic and topological quantum computer science.

The ability to adjust magnetic properties on the nanometric scale, combined with the solid superconductivity of NBSE₂could lead to breakthroughs in the design of new generation quantum devices. This research opens up new paths for strain materials in quantum science.
