Conversion of a conventional superconductor into a topological superconductor by topological proximity effect

Realizing topological superconductivity is essential for applicable fault-tolerant quantum computation. Here, Trang et al. report migration of Dirac-cone from TlBiSe2 substrate to top surface of superconducting Pb film due to topological proximity effect, suggesting realization of topological superc...
