Controlling Anderson localization in disordered heterostructures with Lévy-type distribution

preprint2015arXivOpen access

Abstract

In this paper, we propose a disordered heterostructure in which the distribution of refractive index of one of its constituents follows a Lévy-type distribution characterized by the exponent αα. For the normal and oblique incidences, the effect of αα variation on the localization length is investigated in different frequency ranges. As a result, the controllability of Anderson localization can be achieved by changing the exponent αα in the disordered structure having heavy tailed distribution.
