Abstract

We employ ab initio simulations of wave transport in disordered waveguides to demonstrate explicitly that although accounting for evanescent channels manifests itself in the renormalization of the transport mean free path, the positiondependent diffusion coefficient, as well as distributions of angular transmission, total transmission and conductance, all remain universal.
