Quantum & Classical Statistical Physics Seminar
In this series of seminars we invite speakers to talk about different topics of current interest on Statistical Physics bi-weekly, usually on Tuesday. Researchers from different Mexican or foreign universities are invited to give colloquium and also to present their work. Students are also welcome to present their work in this seminar.
Please check our YouTube page to watch all the previous talks.

Localization of light in Lévy disordered photonic lattices: effects of inhomogeneous disorder on Anderson localization

Abstract
Localization of coherent propagating waves has been extensively studied in homogeneous random media. However, significantly less attention has been given to wave localization in inhomogeneous systems, where the standard picture of Anderson localization does not apply. By fabricating photonic lattices with inhomogeneous disorder modeled by heavy-tailed distributions, namely Lévy α-stable distributions, and measuring the output light intensity profiles, we show that the spatial localization of light is asymmetric concerning the excitation site and is described by a stretched exponential function. The results contrast with the well-known exponential localization in Anderson localization phenomena.
