We summarize the results of our comprehensive analytical and numerical studies of the effects of polarization on the Anderson localization of classical waves in one-dimensional random stacks. We consider homogeneous stacks composed entirely of normal materials or metamaterials, and also mixed stacks composed of alternating layers of a normal material and metamaterial. We extend the theoretical study developed earlier for the case of normal incidence [A. A. Asatryan et al, Phys. Rev. B 81, 075124 (2010)] to the case of off-axis incidence. For the general case where both the refractive indices and layer thicknesses are random, we obtain the long-wave and short-wave asymptotics of the localization length over a wide range of incidence angles (including the Brewster ``anomaly angle). At the Brewster angle, we show that the long-wave localization length is proportional to the square of the wavelength, as for the case of normal incidence, but with a proportionality coefficient substantially larger than that for normal incidence. In mixed stacks with only refractive-index disorder, we demonstrate that p-polarized waves are strongly localized, while for s-polarization the localization is substantially suppressed, as in the case of normal incidence. In the case of only thickness disorder, we study also the transition from localization to delocalization at the Brewster angle.

We have developed an approach allowing us to resolve the problem of non-conventional Anderson localization emerging in bilayered periodic-on-average structures with alternating layers of right-handed and left-handed materials. Recently, it was numeri
cally discovered that in such structures with weak fluctuations of refraction indices, the localization length $L_{loc}$ can be enormously large for small wave frequencies $omega$. Within the fourth order of perturbation theory in disorder, $sigma^2 ll 1$, we derive the expression for $L_{loc}$ valid for any $omega$. In the limit $omega rightarrow 0$ one gets a quite specific dependence, $L^{-1}_{loc} propto sigma ^4 omega^8$. Our approach allows one to establish the conditions under which this effect can be observed.
In this work we include the elastic scattering of longitudinal electromagnetic waves in transport theory using a medium filled with point-like, electric dipoles. The interference between longitudinal and transverse waves creates two new channels amon
g which one allows energy transport. This picture is worked out by extending the independent scattering framework of radiative transfer to include binary dipole-dipole interactions. We calculate the diffusion constant of light in the new transport channel and investigate the role of longitudinal waves in other aspects of light diffusion by considering the density of states, equipartition, and Lorentz local field. In the strongly scattering regime, the different transport mechanisms couple and impose a minimum conductivity of electromagnetic waves, thereby preventing Anderson localization of light in the medium. We extend the self-consistent theory of localization and compare the predictions to extensive numerical simulations.
Selective excitation of a diffusive systems transmission eigenchannels enables manipulation of its internal energy distribution. The fluctuations and correlations of the eigenchannels spatial profiles, however, remain unexplored so far. Here we show
that the depth profiles of high-transmission eigenchannels exhibit low realization-to-realization fluctuations. Furthermore, our experimental and numerical studies reveal the existence of inter-channel correlations, which are significant for low-transmission eigenchannels. Because high-transmission eigenchannels are robust and independent from other eigenchannels, they can reliably deliver energy deep inside turbid media.
We establish a fundamental relationship between the averaged density of states and the extinction mean free path of wave propagating in random media. From the principle of causality and the Kramers-Kronig relations, we show that both quantities are
connected by dispersion relations and are constrained by a frequency sum rule. The results are valid under very general conditions and should be helpful in the analysis of measurements of wave transport through complex systems and in the design of randomly or periodically structured materials with specific transport properties.
We consider noninteracting electrons coupled to laser fields, and study perturbatively the effects of the lattice potential involving disorder on the harmonic components of the electric current, which are sources of high-order harmonic generation (HH
G). By using the Floquet-Keldysh Green functions, we show that each harmonic component consists of the coherent and the incoherent parts, which arise respectively from the coherent and the incoherent scatterings by the local ion potentials. As the disorder increases, the coherent part decreases, the incoherent one increases, and the total harmonic component of the current first decreases rapidly and then approaches a nonzero value. Our results highlight the importance of the periodicity of crystals, which builds up the Bloch states extending over the solid. This is markedly different from the traditional HHG in atomic gases, where the positions of individual atoms are irrelevant.
