摘要：

The propagation dynamics of N laser pulses in a coherently prepared (N+1)-level quantum medium is investigated. A N-photon Beer's law, is presented and a generalized Beer's length defined, which determines the decay of the laser pulses in the medium. A general propagation relation for the N laser pulses which holds for long distances is also given.
