ABSTRACT:
Method and apparatus for increasing the index of refraction, n, by several orders of magnitude. Pumping and probing radiation excite the various atomic levels of a material, and establish coherence between such levels. Index of refraction can thereby be increased while, concomitantly, absorbence of the material is minimized.
