Aharonov-Bohm effect for excitons in a semiconductor quantum ring dressed by circularly polarized light
arXiv:1504.02574 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.91.235308
Abstract
We show theoretically that the strong coupling of circularly polarized photons to an exciton in ring-like semiconductor nanostructures results in physical nonequivalence of clockwise and counterclockwise exciton rotations in the ring. As a consequence, the stationary energy splitting of exciton states corresponding to these mutually opposite rotations appears. This excitonic Aharonov-Bohm effect depends on the intensity and frequency of the circularly polarized field and can be detected in state-of-the-art optical experiments.
