We report an experimental study of the scaling of zero-bias conductance peaks compatible with Majorana zero modes as a function of magnetic field, tunnel coupling, and temperature in one-dimensional structures fabricated from an epitaxial semiconductor-superconductor heterostructure. Results are consistent with theory, including a peak conductance that is proportional to tunnel coupling, saturates at 2e^{2}/h, decreases as expected with field-dependent gap, and collapses onto a simple scaling function in the dimensionless ratio of temperature and tunnel coupling.
我们报告了一项实验研究,该研究针对由外延半导体 - 超导体异质结构制成的一维结构中,与马约拉纳零模兼容的零偏置电导峰随磁场、隧道耦合和温度的标度关系。实验结果与理论相符,包括:峰电导与隧道耦合成正比,在(2e^{2}/h)处饱和,随磁场依赖能隙如预期那样减小,并且在温度与隧道耦合的无量纲比值上坍缩为一个简单的标度函数。
