Observation of optical precursors at the biphoton level
We describe the observation of a sharp leading-edge spike in a biphoton wave packet that is
produced using slow light and measured by two-photon correlation. Using the stationary …

Evolution of Sommerfeld and Brillouin precursors in intermediate spectral regimes
We study, numerically, the transitional behavior of precursors in the intermediate spectral

Carrier-frequency dependence of a step-modulated pulse propagating through a weakly dispersive single narrow-resonance absorber
We observe interference between the optical precursors and the main signal for small
optical depth α0 L∼ 1, in which the main signal cannot be entirely absorbed. Since the main …
