Sargsyan, C. Leroy, Y. Pashayan-Leroy, R. Mirzoyan, A. Papoyan, D. Sarkisyan] The electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) on the atomic D 1 line of rubidium is studied using a nanometric-thin cell with atomic vapor column length in the range of L=400-800nm. It is shown that the reduction of the cell thickness by four orders as compared with an ordinary cm-size cell still allows to form an EIT resonance for L=λ=794nm with the contrast of up to 40%. Further reduction of thickness to L=λ/2 leads to significant reduction of EIT contrast, verifying that the key parameter for EIT in wavelength-scale-thickness cells is not the value of L itself but L/λ ratio. Remarkable distinctions of EIT formation in nanometric-thin and ordinary cells are demonstrated. Well-resolved splitting of the EIT resonance in a magnetic field for L=λ can be used for magnetometry with nanometric spatial resolution. The presented theoretical model well describes the observed results. Springer-Verlag, 2011 Sargsyan A. Institute for Physical Research, NAS of Armenia, 0203, Ashtarak-2, Armenia aut Leroy C.
