Schematic setup for probing quantum correlations between two QDs mediated by a pair of MFs.
A semiconductor nanowire with strong spin-orbit coupling is placed in proximity to an s-wave superconductor, with a pair of MFs emerging at the two ends of the nanowire. (a) Two electrode leads are introduced to investigate the decoherence effects on the quantum correlations. (b) Two auxiliary QDs (denoted by QDL and QDR) are introduced to measure the quantum correlations. The arrows indicate the tunneling directions of electrons. The energy levels of the QDs and the chemical potentials of the electrode leads are tuned by the voltages applied on them.
