Abstract
The spatial structure of two-dimensional quantum disordered wave functions with weak localization (WL) is experimentally observed using a calcium barium niobate Ca0.28Ba0.72Nb2O6 (CBN-28) ferroelectric crystal illuminated by a pulsed laser beam. Non-collinear phase-matching in CBN-28 produces conical second harmonic pattern in the far-field. The probability density distribution of the experimental near-field pattern agrees very well with the theoretical predictions. The localization degree, within the error limits, is the same at different transverse positions due to the periodicity of the crystal and the eigenfunctions are degenerated. We conclude that a ferroelectric crystal represents an ideal model system for investigation of WL.
