Quantum Effects Due to a Magnetic Flux Associated to a Topological Defect (original) (raw)

International Journal of Modern Physics A, 2005

Abstract

We investigate the quantum scattering of an electron by a topological defect called dispiration, with an externally applied magnetic field along its axis. The Aharonov–Bohm effect for bound states is analyzed and it is demonstrated that the wave function and the energy spectra associated with the particle depend on the features of the dispiration as well as on the magnetic flux. We also calculate Berry's phase associated to the dynamics of electrons in this background.
