Light localization signatures in backscattering from periodic disordered media

Abstract

The backscattering line shape is analytically predicted for thick disordered medium films where, remarkably, the medium configuration is periodic along the direction perpendicular to the incident light. A blunt triangular peak is found to emerge on the sharp top. The phenomenon roots in the coexistence of quasi-1D localization and 2D extended states.
