Abstract
In this paper we study the transport properties of model chains consti tuted by random sequences of monomers, dimers, and trimers. We investi gate the transmission properties of the random dimer model (RDM), wher e one of the two site energies of the lattice is assigned to couple of adjacent sites, while the other site energy has no constraints on its probability of occurrence. For comparison, we investigate the transpo rt properties of other models of correlated disorder which can be cons idered as ''components'' of the RDM: the random dimer-isolated monomer , the random dimer-trimer model, and the random dimer alloy model, whi ch is a binary alloy of dimers. Scaling laws of transmittivity with ch ain lengths are investigated.
