Abstract
In this talk I explain that enhancement of performance of almost any optical device such as sensor modulator, amplifier or any nonlinear device in the end intimately connected to increasing the time of light-matter interaction, i.e. reducing the group velocity of light. Such similarly different phenomena as ENZ (epsilon near zero), plasmonics, micro-cavities and photonic crystals can all be characterized using the same slow light formalism.
