Abstract. *Corresponding author e-mail: sokolov@isp.kiev.ua

Keywords: the Berry phase, orbitronics, Zitterbewegung (trembling motion), and effective mass dynamics. Although several specialized reviews already have devoted to the addressed topics, we believe that such review digest including most recent references can help the readers, including authors of SPQEO, to get more information about current trends in the modern semiconductor theory and applications.
