The dependent scattering effect (DSE), which arises from the wave nature of electromagnetic radiation, is a critical mechanism affecting the radiative properties of micro/nanoscale discrete disordered media (DDM). In the last a few decades, the approximate nature of radiative transfer equation (RTE) leads to a plethora of investigations of the DSE in various DDM, ranging from fluidized beds, photonic glass, colloidal suspensions and snow packs, etc. In this article, we give a general overview on the theoretical, numerical and experimental methods and progresses in the study of the DSE. We first present a summary of the multiple scattering theory of electromagnetic waves, including the analytic wave theory and Foldy-Lax equations, as well as its relationship with the RTE. Then we describe in detail the physical mechanisms that are critical to DSE and relevant theoretical considerations as well as numerical modeling methods. Experimental approaches to probe the radiative properties and relevant progresses in the experimental investigations of the DSE are also discussed. In addition, we give a brief review on the studies on the DSE and other relevant interference phenomena in mesoscopic physics and atomic physics, especially the coherent backscattering cone, Anderson localization, as well as the statistics and correlations in disordered media. We expect this review can provide profound and interdisciplinary insights to the understanding and manipulation of the DSE in disordered media for thermal engineering applications.

We present a unified understanding for experimentally observed minimal dc conductivity at the Dirac point in weak disordered graphene. First of all, based on the linear response theory, we unravel that randomness or disorder, inevitably inducing mome ntum dependent corrections in electron self-energy function, naturally yields a sample-dependent minimal conductivity. Taking the long-ranged Gaussian potential as an example, we demonstrate the momentum dependent self-energy function within the Born approximation, and further validate it via numerical simulation using large-scale Lanczos algorithm. The explicit dependence of self-energy on the intensity, concentration and range of potential is critically addressed. Therefore, our results provide a reasonable interpretation of the sample-dependent minimal conductivity observed in graphene samples.
A fundamental insight in the theory of diffusive random walks is that the mean length of trajectories traversing a finite open system is independent of the details of the diffusion process. Instead, the mean trajectory length depends only on the syst ems boundary geometry and is thus unaffected by the value of the mean free path. Here we show that this result is rooted on a much deeper level than that of a random walk, which allows us to extend the reach of this universal invariance property beyond the diffusion approximation. Specifically, we demonstrate that an equivalent invariance relation also holds for the scattering of waves in resonant structures as well as in ballistic, chaotic or in Anderson localized systems. Our work unifies a number of specific observations made in quite diverse fields of science ranging from the movement of ants to nuclear scattering theory. Potential experimental realizations using light fields in disordered media are discussed.
In disordered two dimensional Chern insulators, a single bulk extended mode is predicted to exist per band, up to a critical disorder strength; all the other bulk modes are localized. This behavior contrasts strongly with topologically trivial two-di mensional phases, whose modes all become localized in the presence of disorder. Using a tight-binding model of a realistic photonic Chern insulator, we show that delocalized bulk eigenstates can be observed in an experimentally realistic setting. This requires the selective use of resonator losses to suppress topological edge states, and acquiring sufficiently large ensemble sizes using variable resonator detunings.
Disorder is more the rule than the exception in natural and synthetic materials. Nonetheless, wave propagation within inhomogeneously disordered materials has received scant attention. We combine microwave experiments and theory to find the spatial v ariation of generic wave propagation quantities in inhomogeneously disordered materials. We demonstrate that wave statistics within samples of any dimension are independent of the detailed structure of a material and depend only on the net strengths of distributed scattering and reflection between the observation point and each of the boundaries.
When light is incident on a medium with spatially disordered index of refraction, interference effects lead to near-perfect reflection when the number of dielectric interfaces is large, so that the medium becomes a transparent mirror. We investigate the analog of this effect for electrons in twisted bilayer graphene (TBG), for which local fluctuations of the twist angle give rise to a spatially random Fermi velocity. In a description that includes only spatial variation of Fermi velocity, we derive the incident-angle-dependent localization length for the case of quasi-one-dimensional disorder by mapping this problem onto one dimensional Anderson localization. The localization length diverges at normal incidence as a consequence of Klein tunneling, leading to a power-law decay of the transmission when averaged over incidence angle. In a minimal model of TBG, the modulation of twist angle also shifts the location of the Dirac cones in momentum space in a way that can be described by a random gauge field, and thus Klein tunneling is inexact. However, when the Dirac electrons incident momentum is large compared to these shifts, the primary effect of twist disorder is only to shift the incident angle associated with perfect transmission away from zero. These results suggest a mechanism for disorder-induced collimation, valley filtration, and energy filtration of Dirac electron beams, so that TBG offers a promising new platform for Dirac fermion optics.
