Abstract
The chapter describes the principles of and reviews recent progress on the Optical Aharonov-Bohm effect in quantum dots focusing on type-II quantum dot structures. Type-II quantum dots have been predicted to display the Optical Aharonov-Bohm effect (OABE) due to the strong polarization of an exciton that results from the spatial separation of the electrons and holes in such systems. The Aharonov-Bohm effect for type-II II–VI Zn(Mn)Te/ZnSe quantum dots is the principal topic of this chapter, with additional discussion of InGaAs/GaAs, InP/GaAs and GeSi type-II quantum dots, in which these effects have also been observed.
