Abstract
Optical delays are observed for a pulse propagating through hot cesium vapor in the vicinity of peak absorption features. By tuning the pulse frequency across the absorption spectrum ±20 GhZ, delays up to 66 ns have been observed. In this experiment pulse delays are captured using a gated imaging camera system across the cesium D2 spectrum and compared to delay predictions.
