In a diffusive conductor the eigenstates are spread over the entire sample. However, with certain probability, an anomalously localized state (ALS) can occur, i.e. the wave function assumes anomalously large values in some region of space.…

Anderson localization is a striking phenomenon wherein transport of light is arrested due to the formation of disorder-induced resonances. Hitherto, Anderson localization has been demonstrated separately in two limits of disorder, namely,…
