Abstract

Connecting perfect one-dimensional leads to sites i and j on the quantum percolation (QP) model, we calculate the transmission coefficient T ij (E) at an energy E near the band center and the averages of \(\sum\nolimits_{ij} {{T_{ij}}} ,\,\sum\nolimits_{ij} r _{ij}^2{T_{ij}}\,and\,\sum\nolimits_{ij} r _{ij}^4{T_{ij}}\,\) to 10th order in the concentration p. All three series diverge at a finite threshold p q , with exponents γ, γ+2ν and γ+4ν We find ν = 0.38 ± 0.07in 3 dimensions, differing from “usual” Anderson localization and violating the bound ν ≥ 2/d of Chayes et al. Thus, QP belongs to a new universality class.
