The dispersion profiles are engineered using optical pumping techniques creating significant semipermanent but reprogrammable changes of the rare-earth absorption profiles. Several cavity modes are shown within the spectral transmission window. Several possible applications of this phenomenon are discussed.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2013-11-10T19:42:25.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "42.50.Ct", "42.50.Pq", "42.79.Gn", "78.47.nd" ], "keywords": [ "cavity line narrowing", "slow light", "pulse compression", "spectral engineering", "pumping techniques creating significant semipermanent" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Physical Review Letters", "year": 2013, "month": "Nov", "volume": 111, "number": 18, "pages": 183602 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2013PhRvL.111r3602S" } } }
