Abstract
Flat band systems have attracted considerable interest in different branches of physics, providing a flexible platform for exploring the fundamental properties of flat bands. Flat band states in the continuum (FBICs) can be derived from a one-dimensional lattice loaded with electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) medium. The appearance of the strong slow light phenomena has been found under the conditions of EIT and flat band. Flat bands provide a key ingredient in designing dispersionless wave excitations. Different from the conventional flat band states, the FBIC is delocalized state and has robustness, providing us an efficient way to achieve large delay slow light. These results may provide inspiration for exploring fundamental phenomena arising from FBICs.
