Ultraslow light in inhomogeneously broadened media
- Department of Physics, Oklahoma State University, Stillwater, Oklahoma 74078 (United States)
We calculate the characteristics of ultraslow light in an inhomogeneously broadened medium. We present analytical and numerical results for the group delay as a function of power of the propagating pulse. We apply these results to explain the recently reported saturation behavior [Baldit et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 95, 143601 (2005)] of ultraslow light in rare-earth-ion-doped crystal.
