Abstract
We describe a Raman scheme where the group velocity of an optical pulse can be altered dramatically. With this none electromagnetically-induced-transparency scheme, we show that when on a two-photon resonance, a light pulse can propagate with extremely slow group velocity. Both pulse narrowing and broadening can occur depending upon the choice of two-photon detuning. When using a tuned far-off two-photon resonance, we show that the pulse propagates “superluminally” in the medium with pulse narrowing.
