    The paper is devoted to an investigation of ``quantum waveguide'', i.e. the two-dimensional motion of electrons in small channels which is mathematically represented by a family of Dirichlet Laplacians on randomly dented or bulged strips in \({\mathbb R}^2\). The principal tool is an abstract form of multi-scale analysis from [\textit{P. Stollmann}, Caught by disorder. Bound states in random media, Progress in Mathematical Physics, 20, Boston, Birkhäuser (2001; Zbl 0983.82016)] which allows to obtain Lifshitz asymptotics of the integrated density of states and to study domain perturbations of the Laplacian.
