Omnidirectional suppression of Anderson localization of light in disordered one-dimensional photonic superlattices.
The omnidirectional suppression of Anderson localization of light in a disordered one-dimensional normal-metamaterial photonic superlattice is thoroughly investigated. Analytical conditions relating to the electric-permittivity and magnetic-permeability responses of each slab of the heterostructure are established for the omnidirectional divergence of the localization length of the normal-metamaterial superlattice. The robustness of such conditions with respect to the degree of disorder of the superlattice is also analyzed.
