Electromagnetically induced holographic imaging using monolayer graphene.

Abstract

Graphene exhibits remarkable optical and electronic properties when interacts with electromagnetic field. These properties play a vital role in a broad range of applications, such as, optical communication, optical storage, biomedical imaging and security purposes. Based on electromagnetically induced grating (EIG), we study lensless holographic imaging via quantized energy levels of two-dimensional (2D) monolayer graphene model. We observe that by exploiting electromagnetically induced grating (EIG), holographic interference patterns via electromagnetically induced classical holographic imaging (EICHI) and, non locally, electromagnetically induced quantum holographic imaging (EIQHI) can be obtained in the infrared range (THz) of the spectrum. We notice that for EIQHI one can obtain image magnification using monolayer graphene via manipulation of certain controllable parameters. The scheme provides an experimentally viable option for the classical and quantum mechanical holographic imaging and possibilities for the design of graphene-based quantum mechanical devices which can have many applications.
