Abstract
The spin Berry phase can be observed in conductance experiments on rings of noncentrosymmetric materials. It results in destructive interference and in the shift of the Aharonov-Bohm oscillations. The spin-orbit interaction in vacuumlike Aharonov-Bohm experiments leads to the opposite sign of the magnetoresistance in comparison with the weak localization regime in disordered conductors. A time-dependent uniaxial strain results in current in a ring.This publication has 10 references indexed in Scilit:
