title: Enhancement of a nano cavity lifetime by induced slow light and nonlinear dispersions.
abstract: We start from a 2D photonic crystal nanocavity with moderate Q-factor and dynamically increase it by two order of magnitude by the joint action of coherent population oscillations and nonlinear refractive index.
