We investigate transport properties of topologically disordered, three-dimensional, one-particle, tight binding models, featuring site distance dependent hopping terms. We start from entirely disordered systems into which we gradually…
It has been widely believed that almost all states in one-dimensional (1d) disordered systems with short-range hopping and uncorrelated random potential are localized. Here, we consider the fate of these localized states by coupling between…
The explicit construction of non-dispersive flat band modes and the tunability of has been reported for a hierarchical 3-simplex fractal geometry. A single band tight binding Hamiltonian defined for the deterministic self-similar…
Unlike the well-known Mott's argument that extended and localized states should not coexist at the same energy in a generic random potential, we provide an example of a nearest-neighbor tight-binding disordered model which carries both…
We study quantum percolation which is described by a tight-binding Hamiltonian containing only off-diagonal hopping terms that are generally in quenched binary disorder (zero or one). In such a system, transmission of a quantum particle is…
