Berry phase, semiclassical quantization and Landau levels
We propose the semiclassical quantization for complicated electron systems governed by a many-band Hamiltonian. An explicit analytical expression of the corresponding Berry phase is derived. This impact allows us to evaluate the Landau magnetic levels when the rigorous quantization fails, for instance, for bilayer graphene and graphite with the trigonal warping. We find that the magnetic breakdown can be observed for the certain type of classical electron orbits.
