Anderson localization, a strong localization effect that prevents wave diffusion, is fundamentally important in manipulating wave propagation in a disordered medium. This work uses a phase separated glass Anderson localization optical fiber and demonstrates quantum light transport, which shows the potential for transmission of high dimensional quantum information, thereby enabling quantum imaging and quantum communication applications.
