Magnetoexcitons in quantum-ring structures: a novel magnetic interference effect
A novel magnetic interference effect is proposed for a neutral, but polarizable exciton in a quantum ring with a finite width. The magnetic interference effect originates from the nonzero dipole moment in the exciton. The ground state of exciton acquires a nonzero angular momentum with increasing normal magnetic field. This leads to the suppression of the photoluminescence in defined windows of the magnetic field.
