Disorder, which qualitatively describes some measure of irregularities in spatial patterns, is
ubiquitous in many-body systems, equilibrium and non-equilibrium states of matter, network …

Over the past decade, the Anderson localization of light and a wide variety of associated
phenomena have come to the forefront of research. Numerous investigations have been …

Quasicrystals are aperiodic structures with rotational symmetries forbidden to conventional
periodic crystals; examples of quasicrystals can be found in aluminum alloys, polymers, and …

We report on the observation of Anderson wave localization in one-dimensional waveguide
arrays with off-diagonal disorder. The waveguide elements are inscribed in silica glass, and …

Abstract In 1958, Philip Anderson argued that disorder can transform a conductor into an
insulator, as multiple scattering from disorder brings transport to a complete halt. This …

We demonstrate quantum walks of a photon pair in a spatially extended Einstein-Podolsky-
Rosen state coupled into an on-chip multiport photonic lattice. By varying the degree of …

This tutorial gives an overview of the transverse Anderson localization of light in one and two
transverse dimensions. A pedagogical approach is followed throughout the presentation …

We report the first observation of transverse Anderson localization in a glass optical fiber.
The strong localization happens near the outer boundary of the fiber and no trace of …

Over the last 20 years quantum walks (QWs) have gained increasing interest in the field of
quantum information science and processing. In contrast to classical walkers, quantum …

We recently reported the observation of transverse Anderson localization as the
waveguiding mechanism in optical fibers with random transverse refractive index profiles [1] …
