Majorana zero mode inside vortex core of topological superconductors

In this talk, I will discuss Majorana zero mode inside vortex core of topological super- conductors, which has recently been observed in experiments. The spin polarized scanning tunneling microscope (STM) shows spin dependent tunneling conductance, which is attributed to spin selective Andreev reflection of the Majorana zero mode inside the vortex. I will also present more recent proposal of Majorana zero mode chain in bilayer superconducting topological insulator films.
