Using a single diamond nitrogen-vacancy (NV) center embedded in a waveguide-coupled photonic crystal (PC) nanocavity and driven by a classical laser field, we investigate optical transmission and group delay characteristics of the hybrid system operating in the weak-coupling regime. It is found that double electromagnetically induced-transparency (EIT) transmission peaks and slow-and fast-light propagation inside the EIT-like windows can be realized with practical system parameters. The double-frequency transparency of the input light expands the frequency range of EIT and may improve the controllability of EIT in this composite PC-NV system. The present system also provides a way to achieve integrated photonic slow-and fast-light devices for applications requiring multiple EIT effect in a PC platform.
