In Raman spectra, shifting of peaks towards lower or higher wavenumber is related to chemical ... Actually, I don't know doping process, but in Raman spectra, observing .Now, while the speed of light in the vacuum does NOT depend from the wavelength, the speed of light in a medium depends from the wavelength; thus the refractive index depends from the wavelength. ... This is the mediumresponding to the light. However the dipoles have a natural frequency of oscillation.

Refractive index is a quantity describing the propagation of light through a medium.
Velocity of light in medium 1=V1
velocity of light in medium 2=V2
Then refractive index of medium to with respect to medium one is defined as given in diagram.
Refractive index does not depend on velocity of light, it is very nature is fundamentally interlinked with the fact that velocity of light changes with change in medium.
Velocity is the really only thing in the equation of refractive index.
