The nature of fluorescence intermittency for semiconductor quantum dots (QD) and single molecules (SM) is proposed as a manifestation of Anderson localization. The power law like distribution for the \emph{on} time is explained as due to…
Uncertainty relations provide fundamental limits on what can be said about the properties of quantum systems. For a quantum particle, the commutation relation of position and momentum observables entails Heisenberg's uncertainty relation. A…

Quantum transport through disordered structures is inhibited by (Anderson) localization effects. The disorder can be either topological as in random networks or energetical as in the original Anderson model. In both cases the eigenstates of…
