摘要：

Recent experiments on Bernal bilayer graphene (BLG) deposited on monolayer WSe2 revealed robust, ultraclean superconductivity coexisting with sizable induced spin-orbit coupling. Here, we propose BLG/WSe2 as a platform to engineer gate-defined planar topological Josephson junctions, where the normal and superconducting regions descend from a common material. More precisely, we show that if superconductivity in BLG/WSe2 is gapped and emerges from a parent state with intervalley coherence, then Majorana zero-energy modes can form in the barrier region upon applying weak in-plane magnetic fields. Our results spotlight a potential pathway for internally engineered"topological superconductivity that minimizes detrimental disorder and orbital-magnetic-field effects. © 2023 American Physical Society."
