A Knob for Changing Light Propagation from Subluminal to Superluminal
G. S. Agarwal, Tarak Nath Dey, Sunish Menon
Abstract
We show how the application of a coupling field connecting the two lower metastable states of a lambda-system can produce a variety of new results on the propagation of a weak electromagnetic pulse. In principle the light propagation can be changed from subluminal to superluminal. The negative group index results from the regions of anomalous dispersion and gain in susceptibility.
