We demonstrate the topological protection of the AB effect, where Andreev reflection mediated by MZMs strongly enhances the phase dependence. We investigate the influence of trivial bound states and show that a nonlocal index parameter enables a more explicit distinction between the trivial and topological bound states than local conductance measurements.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2022-05-16T08:38:00.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "majorana bound states", "nonlocal correlation", "aharanov-bohm effect", "nonlocal index parameter enables", "trivial bound states" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 6, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
