Majorana fermions are a class of quasi particles with the exceptional property to be its own antiparticle. The Majorana fermions can be found in superconductors materials in the superconductor energy gap at zero energy. Conductivity STM measurements of superconducting materials in the gap can demonstrate a peak at zero energy which is a sign of the Majorana fermion or Majorana zero mode.
