Localization in One-Dimensional and Quasi-One-Dimensional Systems

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Springer Series in Solid-State Sciences ((SSSOL,volume 39))

Abstract

The localisation length for disordered systems is calculated by a new recursive method using long strips or bars to describe 2-and 3-dimensional systems, respectively. By studying their behaviour as a function of cross-section, scaling relationships for localisation length and conductance are derived. The assumptions about the properties of the ß-function used in recent analytical work are confirmed.
