For zero energy point in the weak disorder limit, we showed that the localization length changes continuously as the correlation of the disorder increases. We found that higher order terms of the correlation must be included into the current perturbation result in order to give the correct localization length, arid to connect smoothly the anomaly at zero correlation with the perturbation result for large correlation.展开更多
