Abstract
Localization of coherent waves has been a cornerstone of wave physics since Anderson’s 1958 prediction, with the vast majority of studies focusing on homogeneous random media where wave intensity decays exponentially. In this talk, I will present our combined experimental (photonic latices), theoretical (random matriz theory), and numerical (tight-binding) demonstration that inhomogeneous disorder fundamentally changes this picture.
