In addition to providing an imaginary part to the spectrum, we show that these quantum fluctuations affect the real part of the spect...<br/>[Phys. Rev.

Stöckmann<br/>We study the effects of random positional disorder in the transmission of waves in the one-dimensional Kronig-Penny model formed by two alternating dielectric slabs. Numerical simulations and experimental data revealed that the so-called resonance bands survive even for relatively strong disorder an...<br/>[Phys. Rev. B 80, 115112] Published Tue Sep 15, 2009 G.
