In this letter, we propose a local detection scheme for the Majorana zeromode (MZM) carried by a vison in Kitaev's chiral spin liquid (CSL) usingscanning tunneling microscopy (STM). The STM introduces a single Majorana intothe system through hole/charge injection and the Majorana interacts with theMZM to form a stable composite object. We derive the exact analyticalexpression of single-hole Green's function in the Mott insulating limit ofKitaev's model and show that the differential conductance has split peaks, as aconsequence of resonant tunneling through the vison-hole composite. The peaksplitting scales with the binding energy of vison-hole composite, which iscomparable to the Majorana gap in CSL, well within the reach of experimentalobservation.
