Shiba lattices in organic/superconductor hybrids – SHOGUN

The realization of novel quantum phases with specific topological properties has been one of the most important and competitive research fields in solid state physics in the last few years due to their importance for quantum computing. One of the most promising ways to achieve this purpose is the use of magnetic impurities in superconductors for the production of Majorana bound states: possible building blocks for quantum computing. Some recent progress has been done in this direction in hybrids systems made of chains of magnetic building blocks in contact with superconductors. In this context, the objective of SHOGUN is to address the emergence of new coherent quantum states with possible topological properties at the interface of superconducting and supramolecular assemblies of magnetic molecules induced by proximity effect and spin-orbit interactions.
