We demonstrate a method for eliminating optical self-focusing and defocusing for a copropagating pair of intense laser beams whose frequencies differ by a Raman resonance. The lasers force the atoms of the medium into a population trapped state, thereby eliminating their contribution to the nonlinear refractive index.
