Photon delocalization transition in dimensional crossover in layered media.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We report a crossover in optical propagation in random layered media from localization towards diffusion as the interaction of the wave with the sample is transformed from one to three dimensional due to nonuniformity in the layer thickness. The crossover occurs at the point that the lateral spread of the wave equals the transverse coherence length in the transmitted speckle pattern.

Axisymmetric Scaled Boundary Finite Element Formulation for Wave Propagation in Unbounded Layered Media
Wave propagation in unbounded layered media with a new formulation of Axisymmetric Scaled Boundary Finite Element Method (AXI-SBFEM) is derived. Dividing the general three-dimensional unbounded domain into a number of independent two-dimensional ones, the problem could be solved by a significant reduction in required storage and computational time. The equations of the corresponding Axisymmetri...
متن کامل0 Ju l 1 99 8 Statistics of energy spectra of a strongly disordered system of interacting electrons
Statistics of many particle energy levels of a finite two-dimensional system of interacting electrons is numerically studied. It is shown that the statistics of these levels undergoes a Poisson to Wigner crossover as the strength of the disorder is decreased. This transition occurs at a similar strength of disorder as the one-electron delocalization crossover in a finite 2d system and develops ...
متن کاملMono-Mono-Mono and Bi-Bi-Bi three-layer graphene systems’ optical conductivity
Investigating the longitudinal optical conductivity of graphene systems, which is the mostimportant property for opto-electronic devices, for three-layer graphene systems theoretically and numerically is the main purpose of this study. Each layer can be mono- or bi-layer graphene. Separation between layers has been denoted by d, selected to be about ten nanometers. The carrier densities i...
متن کاملAnalytical D’Alembert Series Solution for Multi-Layered One-Dimensional Elastic Wave Propagation with the Use of General Dirichlet Series
A general initial-boundary value problem of one-dimensional transient wave propagation in a multi-layered elastic medium due to arbitrary boundary or interface excitations (either prescribed tractions or displacements) is considered. Laplace transformation technique is utilised and the Laplace transform inversion is facilitated via an unconventional method, where the expansion of complex-valued...
متن کاملLayered Higgs Phase as a Possible Field Localisation on a Brane
So far it has been found by using lattice techniques that in the anisotropic five– dimensional Abelian Higgs model, a layered Higgs phase exists in addition to the expected five–dimensional one. The exploration of the phase diagram has shown that the two Higgs phases are separated by a phase transition from the confining phase. This transition is known to be first order. In this paper we explor...
