    "abstract": "We introduce a simple model for electromagnetically induced transparency in\nwhich all fields are treated quantum mechanically. We study a system of three\nseparated atoms at fixed positions in a one-dimensional multimode optical\ncavity. The first atom serves as the source for a single spontaneously emitted\nphoton; the photon scatters from a three-level Lambda-configuration atom which\ninteracts with a single-mode field coupling two of the atomic levels; the third\natom serves as a detector of the total transmitted field. We find an analytical\nsolution for the quantum dynamics. From the quantum amplitude describing the\nexcitation of the detector atom we extract information that provides exact\nsingle-photon analogs to wave delays predicted by semi-classical theories. We\nalso find complementary information in the expectation value of the electric\nfield intensity operator.",
