摘要
Angular momentum J=3/2 holes in semiconductor heterostructures are shown to accumulate non-Abelian geometric phases as a consequence of their motion. We provide a general framework for analyzing such a system and compute conductance oscillations for a simple ring geometry. We also analyze a figure-eight geometry that captures intrinsically non-Abelian interference effects. [S0163-1829(98)13519-1].
