Abstract

The propagation of a pair of optical fields in resonant media with and without the adiabatic approximation was studied. It was shown that for a set of coupling pulses well satisfying the adiabatic conditions, the regenerated field usually has a different bandwidth from the original probe pulse. It was also shown that the slow group-velocity propagation and pulse revival is independent of the one-photon detuning by the probe lasers.
