Detection of Majorana Bound States by Sign Change of the Tunnel Magnetoresistance in a Quantum Dot Coupled to Ferromagnetic Electrodes

We study quantum transport and tunneling magnetoresistance (TMR) through an interacting quantum dot (QD) attached to ferromagnetic electrodes in the Coulomb blockade regime. The QD is also side-coupled to a superconductor nanowire hosting Majarana bound states (MBSs). It is found that when the elect...
