Abstract

The localization phenomena of classical waves in weakly scattering two dimensional (2D) random media with anisotropic disorder was analyzed using perturbative path-integral technique. It was demonstrated that the radiation was always localized in the long-wavelength limit. It was observed that the localization length was independent of the direction of propagation. The results show that the wave transport becomes highly anisotropic for shorter wavelengths.
