Movie. (3.62 MB AVI) Wave packet dynamics in a geometry with 1, 2, and 3 atomic scale steps on top of the sample. Initial wave packet is located at y = 0. Parameters are the same as in figure 4 (left) without disorder and (right) with site-diagonal disorder distributed in the range [-W, W], where W = 1.5vF.
