Let $a , b$ and $\lambda$ be positive real numbers. Suppose $P$ is an end point of the latus rectum of the parabola $y^2=4 \lambda x$, and suppose the ellipse $\frac{x^2}{a^2}+\frac{y^2}{b^2}=1$ passes through the point $P$. If the tangents to the parabola and the ellipse at the point $P$ are perpendicular to each other, then the eccentricity of the ellipse is
