Localization of radiation in two-dimensional random media of finite extent

The localization of electromagnetic waves in a two-dimensional random medium composed of strong scatterers is studied theoretically. It is shown that an allowance for the spatial radiation intensity distribution inside the medium, along with an analysis of the distance dependence of the transmission coefficient, is needed to reveal the localization states in media of finite extent.     

Longitudinal Optical Fields in Light Scattering from Dielectric Spheres and Anderson Localization of Light

Recent research has shown that coupling between point scatterers in a disordered medium by longitudinal electromagnetic fields is harmful for Anderson localization of light. However, it has been unclear if this feature is generic or specific for point scatterers. The present work demonstrates that the intensity of longitudinal field outside a spherical dielectric scatterer illuminated by monochromatic light exhibits a complicated, nonmonotonous dependence on the scatterer size. Moreover, the intensity is reduced for a hollow sphere, whereas one can adjust the parameters of a coated sphere to obtain a relatively low longitudinal field together with a strong resonant scattering efficiency. Therefore, random arrangements of structured (hollow or coated) spheres may be promising three‐dimensional disordered materials for reaching Anderson localization of light.     

Bands of Localized Electromagnetic Waves in 3D Random Media

Anderson localization of electromagnetic waves in three-dimensional disordered dielectric structures is studied using a simple yet realistic theoretical model. An effective approach based on analysis of probability distributions, not averages, is developed. The disordered dielectric medium is modeled by a system of randomly distributed electric dipoles. Spectra of certain random matrices are investigated and the possibility of appearance of the continuous band of localized waves emerging in the limit of an infinite medium is indicated. It is shown that localization could be achieved without tuning the frequency of monochromatic electromagnetic waves to match the internal (Mie-type) resonances of individual scatterers. A possible explanation for the lack of experimental evidence for strong localization in 3D as well as suggestions how to make localization experimentally feasible are also given. Rather peculiar requirements for setting in localization in 3D as compared to 2D are indicated.     

Effects of matrices on Mie scattering in the mid-infrared region

Various Mie scattering systems, each having a transparent matrix, are studied in the mid-infrared region. Our three theoretical scattering systems correspond to a lossless scatterer, an anomalous dispersive dielectric scatterer and a metal scatterer, each in a non-air usual matrix. The refractive-index effects of the matrix on scattering and extinction efficiencies in the mid-infrared region are found to be quite different in different cases. Although the non-air usual matrix reduces scattering and extinction efficiencies in the first kind of system, it may or may not help scatter and extinguish the mid-infrared radiation in the second, and it has little effect on them in the third.     

Ultrafast dephasing of light in strongly scattering GaP nanowires

We demonstrate ultrafast dephasing in the random transport of light through a layer consisting of strongly scattering GaP nanowires. Dephasing results in a nonlinear intensity modulation of individual pseudomodes which is 100 times larger than that of bulk GaP. Different contributions to the nonlinear response are separated by using total transmission, white-light frequency correlation, and statistical pseudomode analysis. A dephasing time of 1.2±0.2 ps is found. Quantitative agreement is obtained with numerical model calculations which include photoinduced absorption and deformation of individual scatterers. Nonlinear dephasing of photonic eigenmodes opens up avenues for ultrafast control of random lasers, nanophotonic switches, and photon localization.     

Exceptional enhancement of localization effect in a one-dimensional multilayer system with destructive weak disorder strength

We report an exceptional enhancement of photon localization effect in a certain one-dimensional random multilayer system. Our simulation with the transfer matrix method predicts and demonstrates that the photon localization effect in a system with weak disorder strength but in a destructive interference resonance region is stronger than that in a completely disordered system. The only reason for this peculiar phenomenon is that the certain weak disorder system confines the resonances between the wave and layers in the destructive interference resonance region.
