Light avoids Anderson Localization
Our paper on Topologically Robust Transport of Photons in a Synthetic Gauge Field appears in Physical Review Letters. The paper features as Editors' Suggestion and has also been selected for a ViewPoint in Physics. This paper reports the first quantitative analysis of the robustness of topological edge states. We demonstrate that in the presence of disorder, edge states are immune against Anderson Localization.
