Polarized excitons in nanorings and the optical Aharonov-Bohm effect
Polarized excitons in nanorings and the optical Aharonov-Bohm effect
The quantum nature of matter lies in the wave function phases that accumulate while particles move along their trajectories. A prominent example is the Aharonov-Bohm phase, which has been studied in connection with the conductance of nanostructures. However, optical response in solids is determined by neutral excitations, for which no …
