Abstract

We study the distributions functions for global partial density of states (GPDOS) in quasi-one-dimensional (Q1D) disordered wires as a function of disorder parameter from metal to insulator. We consider two different models for disordered Q1D wire: a set of two dimensional δ\delta potentials with an arbitrary signs and strengths placed randomly, and a tight-binding Hamiltonian with several modes and on-site disorder. The Green functions (GF) for two models were calculated analytically and it was shown that the poles of GF can be presented as determinant of the rank N×NN\times N, where NN is the number of scatters. We show that the variances of partial GPDOS in the metal to insulator crossover regime are crossing. The critical value of disorder wcw_c where we have crossover can be used for calculation a localization length in Q1D systems.
