Abstract

This paper proposes a novel way to realize a second-order Floquet topological superconducting phase which hosts a pair of localized zero-energy Majorana corner states. The topological phase emerges in a triple-layer system composed of a two-dimensional electron gas with spin-orbit interactions, proximity coupled to an s-wave superconductor and to a ferromagnet driven at resonance.
