Multisubband transport and magnetic deflection of Fermi electron   trajectories in three terminal junctions and rings
  We study the electron transport in three terminal junctions and quantum rings looking for the classical deflection of electron trajectories in presence of intersubband scattering. We indicate that although the Aharonov-Bohm oscillations and the Lorentz force effects co-exist in the low subband transport, for higher Fermi energies a simultaneous observation of the both effects is difficult and calls for carefully formed structures. In particular, in quantum rings with channels wider than the input lead the Lorentz force is well resolved but the Aharonov-Bohm periodicity is lost in chaotic scattering events. In quantum rings with equal length of the channels and $T$-shaped junctions the Aharonov-Bohm oscillations are distinctly periodic but the Lorentz force effects are not well pronounced. We find that systems with the wedge shaped junctions allow for observation of both the periodic Aharonov-Bohm oscillations and the magnetic deflection.
