Quantum interference in density wave systems

When hearing “pi-phase” and “quantum oscillations”, would you immediately jump to Berry phase? In a recent collaborative work, we have shown that a new kind of “pi-phase shift”, i.e., that between quantum oscillations in longitudinal resistivities along orthogonal directions, in the prototypical spin density wave material Cr, is caused by quantum interference effects between coupled …
