= Aharonov-Bohm antidot period
{c}
{title2=$\Delta B=h/(eS)$}

For a fixed effective enclosed <area> $S$, changing the magnetic flux by $h/e$ changes the single-electron <Aharonov-Bohm phase> by $2\pi$. Gate-dependent orbit area, spin branches and charging can modify the observed conductance-resonance pattern; the lithographic depleted area need not equal the exact enclosed edge-orbit area.
