Abstract: | Nonlinear two-component electromagnetic pulse propagation through a resonant axially symmetric anisotropic medium having a permanent dipole moment is analyzed under conditions of strong coupling between the ordinary (short-wavelength) and extraordinary (long-wavelength) pulse components. It is shown that a pulse can propagate through the medium in regimes different from self-induced transparency if its ordinary component is detuned off resonance. In particular, a pulse propagating in the regime of self-induced super-transparency substantially changes quantum-level populations, but its group velocity remains almost equal to the linear velocity. If a pulse propagates in the extraordinary transparency regime and the carrier-frequency detuning from resonance is small, then its group velocity is substantially lower, while the level populations remain virtually invariant. Regimes of propagation through weakly excited media under quasi-resonance conditions are also identified. |
