A model of localization based on the Witten Hamiltonian of supersymmetric quantum mechanics is considered. The case where the superpotential {phi}({ital x}) is a random telegraph process is solved exactly. Both the localization length and the density of states are obtained analytically. A detailed study of the low energy behaviour is presented. Analytical and numerical results are presented in the case where the intervals over which {phi}({ital x}) is kept constant are distributed according to a broad distribution. Various applications of this model are considered. {copyright} 1995 Academic Press, Inc.
