We study slow light performance of molecular aggregates arranged in nanofilms by means of coherent population oscillations (CPO). The molecular cooperative behavior inside the aggregate enhances the delay of input signals in the GHz range in comparison with other CPO-based devices. Moreover, the problem of residual absorption present in CPO processes, is removed. We also propose an optical switch between different delays by exploiting the optical bistability of these aggregates.
