Defect states in three-dimensional diamond photonic band gap crystals
Julia Rocha, Bart A. van Tiggelen, Ad Lagendijk +2
We perform a theoretical study of defect states within the photonic band gap of three-dimensional diamond crystals composed of point scatterers and doped with substitutional defect…
Experimental observation of three-dimensional Anderson localization of electromagnetic waves
Antton Goïcoechea, Alexey Yamilov, Clément Ferise +3
A prominent phenomenon in contemporary condensed matter physics is Anderson localization -- suppression of wave propagation in disordered systems as a result of interference effect…
Delocalization transition for light in two dimensions
Sébastien Lucas, Christian Miniatura, Sergey E. Skipetrov
Common belief, confirmed by existing experiments, is that arbitrarily weak disorder should lead to spatial localization of eigenmodes of scalar wave equations when wave propagation…
Higher-order localization landscape theory of Anderson localization

For a Hamiltonian containing a position-dependent (disordered) potential, we introduce a sequence of landscape functions obeying ${\hat H} u_n(\vec{r}) =…
Anisotropy of localized states in an anisotropic disordered medium
Antton Goïcoechea, John H. Page, Sergey E. Skipetrov
We study Anderson localization of a scalar wave in an ensemble of resonant point scatterers embedded in an anisotropic background medium. For uniaxial anisotropy of moderate streng…

Sergey E. Skipetrov
We study the density of states (DOS) in band gaps of ideal and disordered three-dimensional photonic crystals of finite size. The ideal crystal is a diamond lattice of resonant poi…
Level spacing statistics for light in two-dimensional disordered photonic crystals

We study the distribution of eigenfrequency spacings (the so-called level spacing statistics) for light in a two-dimensional (2D) disordered photonic crystal composed of circular d…

We report an in-depth investigation of the Anderson localization transition for classical waves in three dimensions (3D). Experimentally, we observe clear signatures of Anderson lo…
Ioffe-Regel criterion of Anderson localization in the model of resonant point scatterers
S. E. Skipetrov, I. M. Sokolov
We establish a phase diagram of a model in which scalar waves are scattered by resonant point scatterers pinned at random positions in the free three-dimensional (3D) space. A tran…

A short quasi-monochromatic wave packet incident on a semi-infinite disordered medium gives rise to a reflected wave. The intensity of the latter decays as a power law in t…
