Localization occurs within an energy band centered at atomic resonance.
Results extend to multi-photon states in Bosonic models.
Abstract
We consider a recently proposed model for the propagation of one-photon states in a random medium of two-level atoms. We demonstrate the existence of Anderson localization of single photon states in an energy band centered at the resonant energy of the atoms. Additionally, for a Bosonic model of the atoms the results can be extended to multiple photon states.
