We report a comprehensive discussion of quantum interference effects due to the finite structure of excitons in quantum rings and their first experimental corroboration observed in the optical recombinations. Anomalous features that appear…

Aharonov-Bohm oscillations have been observed in a lattice formed by a two dimensional rhombus tiling. This observation is in good agreement with a recent theoretical calculation of the energy spectrum of this so-called T3 lattice. We have…

In equilibrium, the number of conduction electrons in a solid substance depends on the conformation of the atoms in the substance. When a magnetic field is applied, it takes time for the system to come to a new equilibrium with a new…

We define a mesoscopic ring in a 2-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) interrupted by two tunnel barriers, enabling us to apply a well-defined potential difference between the two halves of the ring. The electron interference in the ring is…

The behavior of persistent current in a mesoscopic cylinder threaded by an Aharonov-Bohm flux $\phi$ is carefully investigated within a Hartree-Fock mean field approach. We examine the combined effect of second-neighbor hopping integral and…

We demonstrate quite generally how a conserved current can have an anomalous dimension. We show here that if the current in the normal state of the cuprates has an anomalous dimension, then the Aharonov-Bohm flux through a ring does not…
