Such conduct ing “surface” states\nare formed with helical Dirac fermions\, with sp in-momentum strictly\nlocked by spin-orbital coupling. When coupled to a c onventional s-wave\nsuperconductor (S)\, the surface state behaves just li ke the desired\np-wave superconductor. It has been predicted that Majorana zero-modes\nobeying non-Abelian statistics can appear in such a system.\n DTSTAMP:20250525T220917Z END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
