Propagation Features of EM-Field Pulse Electric Component in Dielectric in Case of Self-Induced Transparency

Abstract

The formation of an electromagnetic radiation pulse propagating in a dielectric environment under self-induced transparency is considered. The description of such a pulse in terms of the Maxwell–Bloch equations is shown to be insufficient. A possible relation for the average occupation number to the pulse energy with the power saturation of the environment considered is suggested. The calculated pulse electric component is shown.
