21. Note that the amplitudes of these magnetoconductance oscillations depend also on the lattice topology: the harmonics content depends on winding properties which are network dependent; see and M. Pascaud and G. Montambaux, Phys. Rev. Lett. 82, 4512 (1999). To account for this topological effect, we have scaled the AAS and AB amplitudes for the T3 lattice by factors 1.5 and 1.5, respectively.
