Description
In these lectures, I will discuss the consequences of a recent breakthrough in material science, the growth of heterostructures containing superconductors and semiconductors. This includes studies of basic condensed matter physics, such as the superconductor-insulator transition and the so-called anomalous metal phase, to Majorana zero modes and gatemon qubits. In keeping with the theme of the workshop, I will emphasize resent results and opportunities in creating “designer networks” of Josephson junctions.
