We numerically compute the distribution of localization lengths ξq for the qth moments of the wave function in the one-dimensional discrete Schrödinger equation with diagonal disorder, for the case in which the distribution of the potential has a power-law tail. We find a nonzero ‘‘mean’’ localization length ξ0, but zero ξq for q>q¯ (with q¯ depending on the probability distribution). The case therefore falls between the standard situation with a bounded potential (all ξq>0) and the ultralocalization case (all ξq=0).

Abstract
We numerically compute the distribution of localization lengths ξq for the qth moments of the wave function in the one-dimensional discrete Schrödinger equation with diagonal disorder, for the case in which the distribution of the potential has a power-law tail. We find a nonzero ‘‘mean’’ localization length ξ0, but zero ξq for q>q¯ (with q¯ depending on the probability distribution). The case therefore falls between the standard situation with a bounded potential (all ξq>0) and the ultralocalization case (all ξq=0).I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
