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, is aided by a strong modification of the propagation properties of light inside the holes when filled by the molecules. Despite having been initially observed in metallic structures in the optical regime, new routes for investigation and applications at different spectral regimes can be devised. Here, in order to illustrate the potential use of absorption induced transparency at terahertz, a method for molecular detection is presented, supported by a theoretical analysis.

Plasmon induced transparency (PIT) effect in a terahertz graphene metamaterial is numerically and theoretically analyzed. The proposed metamaterial comprises of a pair of graphene split ring resonators placed alternately on both sides of a graphene s
trip of nanometer scale. The PIT effect in the graphene metamaterial is studied for different vertical and horizontal configurations. Our results reveal that there is no PIT effect in the graphene metamaterial when the centers of both the split ring resonators and the graphene strip are collinear to each other. This is a noteworthy feature, as the PIT effect does not vanish for similar configuration in a metal-based metamaterial structure. We have further shown that the PIT effect can be tuned by varying the Fermi energy of graphene layer. A theoretical model using the three level plasmonic system is established in order to validate the numerical results. Our studies could be significant in designing graphene based frequency agile ultra-thin devices for terahertz applications.
Recent experiments (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 50, 2085 (2011)) have demonstrated that the optical transmission through an array of subwavelength holes in a metal film can be enhanced by the intentional presence of dyes in the system. As the transmission
maxima occurs spectrally close to the absorption resonances of the dyes, this phenomenon was christened Absorption Induced Transparency. Here, a theoretical study on Absorption Induced Transparency is presented. The results show that the appearance of transmission maxima requires that the absorbent fills the holes and that it occurs also for single holes. Furthermore, it is shown that the transmission process is non-resonant, being composed by a sequential passage of the EM field through the hole. Finally, the physical origin of the phenomenon is demonstrated to be non-plasmonic, which implies that Absorption Induced Transparency should also occur at the infrared or Terahertz frequency regimes.
We demonstrate theoretically that electromagnetically induced transparency can be achieved in metamaterials, in which electromagnetic radiation is interacting resonantly with mesoscopic oscillators rather than with atoms. We describe novel metamateri
al designs that can support full dark resonant state upon interaction with an electromagnetic beam and we present results of its frequency-dependent effective permeability and permittivity. These results, showing a transparency window with extremely low absorption and strong dispersion, are confirmed by accurate simulations of the electromagnetic field propagation in the metamaterial.
We study graphene on a photonic crystal operating in the terahertz (THz) spectral range. We show that the absorption of graphene becomes a modulated function of frequency and can be enhanced by more than three times at specific frequency values, depe
nding on the parameters of the system. The problem of a semi-infinite photonic crystal is also solved.
In the phenomenon of electromagnetically induced transparency1 (EIT) of a three-level atomic system, the linear susceptibility at the dipole-allowed transition is canceled through destructive interference of the direct transition and an indirect tran
sition pathway involving a meta-stable level, enabled by optical pumping. EIT not only leads to light transmission at otherwise opaque atomic transition frequencies, but also results in the slowing of light group velocity and enhanced optical nonlinearity. In this letter, we report an analogous behavior, denoted as phonon-induced transparency (PIT), in AB-stacked bilayer graphene nanoribbons. Here, light absorption due to the plasmon excitation is suppressed in a narrow window due to the coupling with the infrared active {Gamma}-point optical phonon, whose function here is similar to that of the meta-stable level in EIT of atomic systems. We further show that PIT in bilayer graphene is actively tunable by electrostatic gating, and estimate a maximum slow light factor of around 500 at the phonon frequency of 1580 cm-1, based on the measured spectra. Our demonstration opens an avenue for the exploration of few-photon non-linear optics and slow light in this novel two-dimensional material, without external optical pumping and at room temperature.
