Abstract

We follow the temporal evolution of mesoscopic intensity fluctuations and correlation in strongly localized samples. We find an initial burst in relative transmission fluctuations in random one-dimensional (1D) samples due to fluctuations in the arrival time of ballistic transmission. Relative fluctuations subsequently rise, then drop to a minimum at a time t_m, after which they increase rapidly in 1D simulations and quasi- 1D (Q1D) measurements. For t>3t_m, results in 1D and Q1D samples converge towards predictions of a dynamic single parameter scaling model. These results reflect the changing number of modes participating appreciably in transmission as the impact of longer lived modes grows with time delay.
