The weak localization (coherent backscattering enhancement) phenomenon in media with graded refraction index is investigated within the diffusion approximation. The obtained analytic results are compared with numerical solutions by finite-difference and Monte Carlo calculations.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
