Realizing the electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT)-like transmission with a single hole-ring resonator

Electromagnetically induced transparency like effect, which can form a sharp transmission window within a broad spectrum, has been widely studied due to its potential in many optical devices. In this work, unlike traditional couple-ring resonator structure, we propose a new scheme to achieve electromagnetically induced transparency using only one hole-ring resonator. Thus, the proposed scheme can greatly miniaturize the device. At the wavelength of about 1550 nm, the structure can form multiple transparency windows and can behave as a refractive index sensor with high resolution, the figure of merit can reach larger than 530. The proposed scheme can pave the way for many practical applications such as optical sensors, optical switches and slow light devices.
