Popis: Over the last decade, there have been considerable efforts to observe non-abelian quasi-particles in novel quantum materials and devices. These efforts are motivated by the goals of demonstrating quantum statistics of quasi-particles beyond those of fermions and bosons and of establishing the underlying science for the creation of topologically protected quantum bits. In this review, we focus on efforts to create topological superconducting phases hosting Majorana zero modes. We consider the lessons learned from existing experimental efforts, which are motivating both improvemensts to current platforms and exploration of new approaches. Although the experimental detection of non-abelian quasi-particles remains challenging, the knowledge gained thus far and the opportunities ahead offer high potential for discovery and advances in this exciting area of quantum physics.
