| Summary: | We study transport properties of phase-coherent quasi-one-dimensional disordered conductors in the diffusive regime, in terms of the eigenvalue distribution of the two-terminal transmission matrix. Using an expansion in inverse powers of the classical conductance, we calculate the average transmission eigenvalue density and the two-point correlation function for fluctuations in the density. A formula for the average value and the variance of a general linear statistic on the transmission eigenvalues is obtained. Our results confirm an earlier hypothesis, based on random-matrix theory, that fluctuations are universal in the diffusive regime and ultimately determined by level repulsion. © 1994 The American Physical Society. |
