Localization of optics: Quasiperiodic media.
TLDR
An experiment to probe the (quasi)localization of the photon is proposed, in which optical layers are constructed following the Fibonacci sequence, which has scaling with respect to the number of layers, as well as an interesting fluctuation.Abstract:
An experiment to probe the (quasi)localization of the photon is proposed, in which optical layers are constructed following the Fibonacci sequence. The transmission coefficient has a rich structure as a function of the wavelength of light and, in fact, is multifractal. For particular wavelengths for which the resonance condition is satisfied, the light propagation has scaling with respect to the number of layers, as well as an interesting fluctuation.read more

Power Spectrum of a One Dimensional Two Component Fibonacci Sequence System
TL;DR: In this article, an analytical formula for the power spectrum of a one dimensional system made up of two components in the Fibonacci sequence is given, and an experiment is carried out to demonstrate the usefulness of the formula in the analysis of experimental results.

Transverse acoustic waves in piezoelectric-metallic Fibonacci multilayers
TL;DR: In this article, the propagation of transverse acoustic waves in quasi-periodic structures following the Fibonacci sequence made of two blocs A and B where the block A is a metal layer and the bloc B is a piezoelectric layer.

Electron/Electromagnetic Multiple Scattering and Localization
Daniela Dragoman,Mircea Dragoman +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the analogies between multiple scattering and localization theories of electrons and classical electromagnetic waves are discussed, and the localization phenomenon of quantum or classical waves is closely related to wave scattering in disordered or random media.

Novel optical superlattices
TL;DR: In this paper, the optical properties of a metal/insulator superlattice with regular and random layer widths were investigated and the possibility of a Rydberg-like series of localized photonic states was found.
