Majorana modes are highly non-local quantum states with non-Abelian exchange statistics, which localize at the two ends of finite-size 1D topological superconductors of sufficient length. By precisely positioning magnetic atoms on a superconducting surface, their interaction is tailored such that the precursors of Majorana modes are simultaneously observed on both ends of linear atomic chains.
