The Fourier spectra of the oscillations reveal extra structure near the main peak whose frequency corresponds to the magnetic flux enclosed by the ring. A comparison of the experimental data with results of simulations demonstrates that the origin of the extra structure is the geometric (Berry) phase acquired by the carrier spin as it travels around the ring.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2002-02-27T22:56:31.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "aharonov-bohm oscillations", "berrys phase", "oscillations reveal extra structure", "gaas two-dimensional hole system", "perpendicular magnetic field" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
