01 / THE PRINCIPLE

What this assembly is supposed to do

In laboratory media EIT can map optical excitation into collective atomic coherence. The conceptual SLAFPC combines a resonant cavity, photonic effective mass and polariton control to imagine storing a large low-energy population.

02 / CONNECTIONS AND BOUNDARIES

How it fits the engine

Effective photon mass created by optical confinement is not evidence of intrinsic Proca photon rest mass. Extrapolation to the proposed massive-photon dark substrate remains unresolved.
