Photon random walks and beyond — •Georg Maret — Universität Konstanz

Light propagation in turbid media is often described by a simple random walk of photons. However, interference effects generate large deviations from this picture giving rise to speckles and coherent backscattering. These phenomena provide not only a wealth of information on the scattering medium itself, but may cause profound changes in the photon transport, ultimately ending up possibly in light localization. Our recent experimental progress on these issues will be reviewed.
