%0 Journal Article %T Slow-light enhancement of Beer-Lambert-Bouguer absorption %A Niels Asger Mortensen %A Sanshui Xiao %J Physics %D 2007 %I arXiv %R 10.1063/1.2720270 %X We theoretically show how slow light in an optofluidic environment facilitates enhanced light-matter interactions, by orders of magnitude. The proposed concept provides strong opportunities for improving existing miniaturized chemical absorbance cells for Beer-Lambert-Bouguer absorption measurements widely employed in analytical chemistry. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/physics/0703059v1
