increasing development of nano-technology in optics and photonics by using modern methods of light control in waveguide devices and requiring miniaturization and electromagnetic devices such as antennas, transmission and storage as well as improvement in the electromagnetic tool, have led researchers to use the phenomenon of electromagnetically induced transparency (eit) and similar phenomena i...

We prove the instability of averages of the conductivity in the inverse boundary value problem of Calderón, also known as the inverse conductivity problem or EIT.

We present a proof-of-principle experiment in which the population of an atomic level is spatially localized using the technique of electromagnetically-induced transparency (EIT). The key idea is to utilize the sensitive dependence of the dark state of EIT on the intensity of the coupling laser beam. By using a sinusoidal intensity variation (standing-wave), we demonstrate that the population o...

We calculate the line shape and linewidths for electromagnetically induced transparency EIT in optically thick, Doppler broadened media buffer gasses are also considered . In generalizing the definition of the EIT linewidth to optically thick media, we find two different linewidth definitions apply depending on whether the experiment is pulsed or continuous wave cw . Using the cw definition for...

We report a large-scale coronal wave (so-called “EIT wave”) observed with high cadence by EUVI onboard STEREO in association with the GOES B9.5 flare and double CME event on 19 May 2007. The EUVI instruments provide us with the unprecedented opportunity to study the dynamics of flare/CME associated coronal waves. The coronal wave under study reveals deceleration, indicative of a freely propagat...

We review the current status of the ’Parker hypothesis’ which suggests that the solar corona is heated by a multitude of small flare-like events called nanoflares. Space-born coronal imagers such as SXT, EIT or TRACE have allowed to test Parker’s hypothesis observationally. Combining the results from different authors it seems that we are close to falsifying the hypothesis, i.e. there are not e...

We show how the application of a coupling field connecting the two lower metastable states of a Lambda system facilitates stoppage of light in a coherently driven Doppler broadened atomic medium via electromagnetically induced transparency.

The objective of this study is to find an effective stimulation and measurement strategy to improve distinguishability for head EIT. To better understand the relationship between distinguishability and various strategies (stimulation/measurement patterns) for a set of electrodes, we evaluated a realistic head model and a range of common strategies.

In this manuscript we present calculations that consider the propagation of a squeezed vacuum signal field through a resonant atomic medium under electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT). We show that squeezing is degraded due to four-wave mixing processes at high optical depth of the atomic medium. We also present some preliminary results for degenerate Zeeman EIT resonances.
