Abstract
We describe how solid hydrogen can open new perspectives in optical physics via electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) for far-off-resonance systems. We show that by using a solid-hydrogen crystal the restriction of phasematching can be removed from nonlinear parametric Raman processes and also that the group velocity of light can be slowed down by many orders.
