<< Overcoming the detrimental effect of disorder at the nanoscale is very hard since disorder induces localization and an exponential suppression of transport efficiency. (AA) unveil novel and robust quantum transport regimes achievable in nanosystems by exploiting long-range hopping. (They) demonstrate that in a 1D disordered nanostructure in the presence of long-range hopping, transport efficiency, after decreasing exponentially with disorder at first, is then enhanced by disorder [disorder-enhanced transport regime] until, counterintuitively, it reaches a disorder-independent transport regime, persisting over several orders of disorder magnitude in realistic systems. >>️
