Which localization occurs when solving Schrödinger's Equation for a crystal with many imperfections?

💡 Explanation

Because imperfections disrupt electron wave propagation, Anderson Localization confines electrons to specific regions explained by localized wave functions. The mechanism is wave interference and scattering; therefore, localization occurs due to disorder rather than free Bloch waves.
