A band of bound states in the continuum induced by disorder

Abstract Bound states in the continuum usually refer to the phenomenon of a single or a few discrete bound states embedded in a continuous spectrum of extended states. Here we propose a simple mechanism to achieve a band of bound states in the continuum in a class of disordered quasi-1D and quasi-2D...
