A tutorial discussion of the propagation of waves in random media is presented. To a first
approximation the transport of the multiple scattered waves is given by diffusion theory, but …

This educational work presents a new approach towards resonant interaction between
classical light and matter. The interaction between light and matter is considered from three …

It is shown that in dielectrics exhibiting a complete photonic band gap, quantum
electrodynamics predicts the occurrence of bound states of photons to hydrogenic atoms …

The realization that electron localization in disordered systems (Anderson localization) is
ultimately a wave phenomenon, has led to the suggestion that photons could be similarly …

Light propagation in materials with microscopic inhomogeneities is affected by scattering. In
scattering materials, such as powders, disordered metamaterials or biological tissue …

It is shown theoretically that under appropriate conditions a visually opaque, multiply
scattering optical barrier can be made to serve as a thin lens which produces a near perfect …

WAVEFUNCTIONS of electrons or photons in a strongly scattering random medium may
become localized owing to the underlying wave nature of the particles1, 2. Particularly …

We report on the observation of Bloch oscillations in light transport through periodic
dielectric systems. By introducing a linear refractive index gradient along the propagation …

We present results of optical experiments which demonstrate that in a strongly scattering
medium containing resonant scatterers the velocity for electromagnetic energy may differ by …
