We substitute the fully absorbing obstacle in the Elitzur-Vaidman experiment by a semitransparent object and show that the probabilities of detection can be manipulated in dependence of the transparency of such an object. Then, we connect…
Some optomechanical systems can be transparent to a probe field when a strong driving field is applied. These systems can provide an optomechanical analogue of electromagnetically-induced transparency (EIT). We study the transmission of a…
We find a new set of exact solutions to Maxwell's equations in space--time varying materials, where the refractive index is constant, while the impedance exhibits effective motion, i.e. it is a function of $x-vt$. We find that waves…
We study quantum effects of light propagation through an extended absorbing system of two-level atoms placed within a frequency gap medium (FGM). Apart from ordinary solitons and single particle impurity band states, the many-particle…

We investigate the optical properties of a two-level system (TLS) coupled to a linear series of $N$ other TLS's with dipole-dipole coupling between the first neighbours. The first TLS is probed by weak field and we assume that it has a…
Interference between different photons occurs and has been observed under diverse experimental conditions. A necessary condition in order to obtain interference fringes is the existence of at least two possible paths and unknown which-path…
In this study, we report on the fractional Talbot effect of nonparaxial self-accelerating beams in a multilevel electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) atomic configuration, which, to the best of our knowledge, is the first study on…
So far, Brillouin scattering and cavity optomechanics were mostly disconnected branches of research -- although both deal with photon-phonon coupling. This begs for the development of a broader theory that contains both fields. Here, we…
In this paper, a new structure is proposed which is expected to realize dual-band electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT)-like effect in terahertz spectrum. It can be regarded as a metamaterial of grating-like elements composed of…
We study optomechanically-induced transparency (OMIT) in a compound system consisting of an optical cavity and an acoustic molecule, which features not only double OMIT peaks but also light advance. We find that by selectively driving one…
The celebrated Sommerfeld wedge diffraction solution is reexamined from a null interior field perspective. Exact surface currents provided by that solution, when considered as disembodied half-plane laminae radiating into an ambient,…
Metasurfaces characterized by a transverse gradient of local impedance have recently opened exciting directions for light manipulation at the nanoscale. Here we add a temporal gradient to the picture, showing that spatio-temporal variations…
Narrow-band invisibility in an otherwise opaque medium has been achieved by electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) in atomic systems. The quantum EIT behaviour can be classically mimicked by specially engineered metamaterials via…
Contrary to what might be expected, when an organic dye is sputtered onto an opaque holey metal film, transmission bands can be observed at the absorption energies of the molecules. This phenomenon, known as absorption-induced transparency,…
We observe and investigate, both experimentally and theoretically, electromagnetically-induced transparency experienced by evanescent fields arising due to total internal reflection from an interface of glass and hot rubidium vapor. This…
We consider a one-dimensional optomechanical lattice where each site is strongly driven by a control laser to enhance the basic optomechanical interaction. We then study the propagation of photons injected by an additional probe laser beam;…
Recently, we have showed a mechanism that could provide a great transmission enhancement of the light waves passed through subwavelength aperture arrays in thin metal films not by the plasmon-polariton waves, but by the constructive…
We revisit the electromagnetic problem of wave incidence upon a uniform, dissipative dielectric slab of finite thickness. While this problem is easily solved via interface field continuity, we treat it under the viewpoint of radiative…
We simulate the possible emission from a disk perturbed by a recoiling super-massive black hole. To this end, we study radiation transfer from the system incorporating bremsstrahlung emission from a Maxwellian plasma and absorption given by…
