“Electric field tuning of the optical excitonic Aharonov-Bohm effect in nanodots grown by droplet epitaxy”. Arsoski V, Tadic M, Peeters FM, Physica scripta T157, 014002 (2013). http://doi.org/10.1088/0031-8949/2013/T157/014002 Abstract: Neutral excitons in axially symmetric GaAs nanodots embedded in an (Al, Ga) As matrix, which are formed by the droplet epitaxy technique, are investigated theoretically. An electric field perpendicular to the nanodot base results in both a vertical and an in-plane exciton polarization, which is beneficial for the appearance of the excitonic Aharonov-Bohm effect. In the range of low magnetic fields (below 5 Tesla), we found that the bright and dark exciton states can cross twice. This results in oscillations of the photoluminescence intensity with magnetic field, which are a striking manifestation of the optical excitonic Aharonov-Bohm effect.

“Interband optical properties of concentric type-I nanorings in a normal magnetic field”. Arsoski V, Tadić, M, Peeters FM, Acta physica Polonica: A: general physics, solid state physics, applied physics 117, 733 (2010) Abstract: Two concentric two-dimensional GaAs/(Al,Ga)As nanorings in a normal magnetic field are theoretically studied. The single-band effective mass approximation is adopted for both the electron and the hole states, and the analytical solutions are given. We find that the electronic single particle states are arranged in pairs, which exhibit anticrossings and the orbital momentum transitions in the energy spectrum when magnetic field increases. Their period is essentially determined by the radius of the outer ring. The oscillator strength for interband transitions is strongly reduced close to each anticrossing. We show that an optical excitonic Aharonov-Bohm effect may occur in concentric nanorings.
