“…'Fast light' and 'slow light' have recently attracted substantial interest because they have important applications, as in optical signal processing, optical buffers, optical communication, optical data synchronization, optical memories, and phasearray antenna systems [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9]. In recent years, slow light has been demonstrated in electromagnetically induced transparency, coherent population oscillations, and stimulated Brillouin and Raman scattering.…”
