Anderson localization of composite excitations in disordered optomechanical arrays

Anderson localization of composite excitations in disordered optomechanical arrays. Optomechanical (OMA) arrays are a promising future platform for studies of transport, many-body dynamics, quantum control and topological effects in systems of coupled photon and phonon modes. We introduce disordered OMA arrays, focusing on features of Anderson localization of hybrid photon–phonon excitations.
