Abstract
A Λ-type three-level atomic system in the electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) configuration interacting with a broadband squeezed vacuum (SV) bath is studied with quantum interference (QI) between decay channels taken into account. We formulate two sufficient critical conditions for the medium to be dispersionless or absorptionless. Computational results for the dispersion and absorption spectra show that presence of both QI and SV offers more avenues to manipulate the group velocity of probe pulse for its variation from sub-luminal to super-luminal regimes. The relative phase between the two external fields is found to act as a control knob of the atomic medium.
