We introduce a model for a multiband topological superconductor with two orbitals per lattice site, in two spatial dimensions. Concentrating on the Andreev re ection problem, the appropriate wave function matching conditions for an interface with a normal single-band metal were previously derived in the framework of a quantum waveguide theory. This theory retrieves the correct number of Majorana fermion states as predicted by the topological index. We obtain the di erential conductance as a function of bias voltage, which displays the contribution of the Majorana fermions. Interface disorder is also considered. By varying band structure parameters, topological transitions can be induced, whereby the number of the Majorana modes varies. We calculate the e ect of such transitions on the di erential conductance.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
