Quantum percolation in power-law diluted chains
Abstract
We investigate the quantum percolation problem in a diluted chain with long-range hopping amplitudes. Each bond is activated with probability $p(r) = p_1/r^α$, where $r$ is the distance between two sites and $α$ characterizes the range of the interactions. The average participation ratio of all eigenstates is used as a measure of the wave-functions localization length. We found that, above a quantum percolation threshold $p_1^{(q)}$, true extended states appears for $α< 1.5$. In the regime of $1.5 < α<2.0$ there is no trully extended states even in the presence of a spanning cluster. Instead, a phase of critical wave-functions sets up.
