Abstract

We develop a classical model of the parametric effect of electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) within the line of resonance absorption of an electromagnetic wave in the medium—an effect initially discovered for a quantum three-level system. On the basis of this model, the EIT effect for electromagnetic waves at frequencies of the electron-cyclotron resonance in a cold plasma is considered. Similar to the analogous quantum scheme, the EIT window in the classical model is characterized by group deceleration of the reference electron-cyclotron wave.
