description

In order to investigate the electronic states in weakly disordered 2D samples very large (up to 180 000 * 180 000) secular matrices corresponding to the Anderson Hamiltonian are diagonalized. The analysis of the resulting wave functions shows multifractal fluctuations on all length scales in the considered systems. The set of generalized (fractal) dimensions and the singularity spectrum of the fractal measure are determined in order to completely characterize the eigenfunctions.
