In order to assess the effects of random coordination on the statistical properties of energy spectra, we analyze tight-binding models for planar topologically disordered systems. To this end, the networks are generated by a simple topological model covering a wide range of naturally observed random structures. We find that the energy-level-spacing distributions exhibit level repulsion, similar to the spacings in the energetically disordered Anderson model of localization in the metallic regime.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "1998-11-25T13:56:16.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "electronic states", "random coordination", "metallic regime", "analyze tight-binding models", "planar topologically disordered systems" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 5, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
