We measure localized and extended mode profiles at the band edge of slow-light photonic-crystal waveguides using phase-sensitive near-field microscopy. High-resolution band structures are obtained and interpreted, allowing the retrieval of…
We study the effects of random positional disorder in the transmission of waves in a 1D Kronig-Penny model. For weak disorder we derive an analytical expression for the localization length and relate it to the transmission coefficient for…
We study both theoretically and experimentally the effects of introducing deliberate disorder in a slow-light photonic crystal waveguide on the photon density of states. We first introduce a theoretical model that includes both deliberate…
Established theoretical studies of diffusion in rugged (or rough) potential surfaces have largely focused on quenched energy landscapes. Here we study diffusion on a rugged energy landscape in the presence of dynamic disorder, a situation…
The destruction of quasi-long range crystalline order as a consequence of strong disorder effects is shown to accompany the strict localization of all classical plasma modes of one-dimensional Wigner crystals at T=0. We construct a phase…
Photonic crystals are extremely sensitive to structural disorder even to the point of completely losing their functionalities. While on one side this can be detrimental for applications in traditional optical devices, on the other side, it…
Using large-scale simulations based on matrix product state and quantum Monte Carlo techniques, we study the superfluid to Bose glass-transition for one-dimensional attractive hard-core bosons at zero temperature, across the full regime…
The properties of semiconductors, insulators, and photonic crystals are defined by their electronic or photonic bands, and the gaps between them. When the material is disordered, Lifshitz tails appear: these are localized states that…
An amazingly simple model of correlated disorder is a one-dimensional chain of n potential steps with a fixed width lc and random heights. A theoretical analysis of the average transmission coefficient and Landauer resistance as functions…
We study a 1D system with a power-law quasiparticle dispersion $\propto |k|^\alpha\sign k$ in the presence of a short-range-correlated random potential and demonstrate that for $\alpha<1/2$ it exhibits a disorder-driven quantum phase…
We study the effects of weak disorder on a Wigner crystal in a magnetic field. We show that an elastic description of the pinned Wigner crystal provides an excellent framework to obtain most of the physically relevant observables. Using…
By using Lanczos exact diagonalization and quantum Monte Carlo combined with stochastic analytic continuation, we study the dynamical properties of the $S=1$ antiferromagnetic Heisenberg chain with different strengths of bond disorder. In…
In this paper, we study the full conductance statistics of disordered one dimensional wire under the application of light. We develop the transfer matrix method for periodically driven systems to analyze the conductance of large system with…
The study of energy transport properties in heterogeneous materials has attracted scientific interest for more than a century, and it continues to offer fundamental and rich questions. One of the unanswered challenges is to extend Anderson…
We study the density of states (DOS) in band gaps of ideal and disordered three-dimensional photonic crystals of finite size. The ideal crystal is a diamond lattice of resonant point scatterers (atoms) whereas the disordered one is obtained…
A diagrammatic method is applied to study the effects of commensurability in two-dimensional disordered crystalline metals by using the particle-hole symmetry with respect to the nesting vector P_0={\pm{\pi}/a, {\pi}/a} for a half-filled…
Photonic crystals are characterized by a spatial modulation of the dielectric constant on the length scale of the wavelength of light giving rise to energy ranges where light cannot propagate through the crystal - the photonic band gap.…
Connections between the electron eigenstates and conductivity of one-dimensional disordered electron systems is studied in the framework of the tight-binding model. We show that for weak disorder only part of the states exhibit resonant…
This study investigates the interplay between structural disorder, absorption, and Lyapunov exponent dynamics to exploit localization phenomena in photonic crystals with engineered defect layers. We generate disorder by introducing random…
We theoretically investigate the magnitude and range of the photon-mediated interaction between two quantum dots embedded in a photonic crystal waveguide, including fabrication disorder both in the crystal and in the dot positioning. We…
