We demonstrate that there are two kinds of conductance extremas. One class of them are fixed at particular flux values and can only change abruptly from a maxima to a minima as incident energy is varied. We show a different mechanism for such abrupt phase change in conductance oscillation. We demonstrate that these extremas can exhibit $``$phase locking". However, the second kind of extremas can shift continuously as the incident energy is varied.Figure available on requestCondensed MatterPhase of Aharonov-Bohm oscillations in conductance of mesoscopic systemstext
