We study coherent electronic transport through a Coulomb blockaded superconducting Rashba wire in the co-tunneling regime between conductance resonances. By varying an external Zeeman field the wire can be tuned into a topological regime, where non-local transport through Majorana zero modes is the dominant mechanism. We model coherent transport in the co-tunneling regime by using a scattering matrix formalism, and find that the transmission amplitude has a maximum as a function of Zeeman field, whose height is proportional to the wire length. We relate the transmission amplitude to the Majorana correlation length, and argue that the Zeeman field and length dependence of the transmission amplitude are unique signatures for the presence of Majorana zero modes.
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.
