We claim that the concept of electromagnetically induced transparency is only valid for low atomic densities, and for high densities stimulated Raman scattering is totally dominant, where the incident probe wave is not transmitted but is converted to the Stokes wave. This behavior can be explained by the large difference in linear absorption coefficients between the probe and the Stokes waves. We have verified this claim by the experiments using sodium atomic vapor samples with and without a buffer gas. Theoretical analyses using the Liouville-Maxwell equations and numerical simulations also supported our observations.
