zxzyplets
Zxzyplets are a proposed class of quasiparticles that arise in certain two-dimensional quantum materials exhibiting symmetry-enriched topological order. The term refers to a four-component bound state formed by interacting elementary excitations, with the internal degrees of freedom described by a four-state system. The concept emerged in theoretical studies of multi-component anyon models and their fusion and braiding properties.
In theory, zxzyplets exhibit non-Abelian statistics under specific conditions. They are predicted to be bound states
Experimental status is exploratory. Researchers have searched for signatures of zxzyplets in proximitized graphene, transition metal
Potential applications center on fault-tolerant quantum computation, where zxzyplets could serve as topological qubits with protection
