Confinement of Light in Disordered Photonic Lattices: A New Platform for Waveguidance

arXiv:1504.08172

Abstract

A right amount of disorder in the form of refractive index variation has been introduced to achieve transverse localization of light 1D semi-infinite photonic lattices. Presence of longitudinally-invariant transverse disorder opens-up a new waveguiding mechanism.
