摘要
Delay-time measurements in a diffraction experiment with microwaves have been performed both for the phase delay and for the group delay in the range of a few picoseconds to hundreds of picoseconds. The results obtained demonstrate that for evanescent modes below the cutoff frequency superluminal behavior was attained.
