Optical delay control of large-spectral-bandwidth laser pulses

Optics 2009-02-06 v1

Abstract

In this letter we report the first experimental observation of temporal delay control of large-spectral-bandwidth multimode laser pulses by means of electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT). We achieved controllable retardation with limited temporal distortion of optical pulses with an input spectral bandwidth of 3.3 GHz. The experimental results compare favorably with theoretical predictions.
