Abstract

In this work the amplitude and width of the coherent resonances at the degenerate two-level system on the (F/sub 8/ = 2 /spl rarr/ F/sub e/ = 1) transition at /sup 87/Rb D1 line have been investigated by means of Hanle effect configuration. A complex shape of the dark resonance was measured, the resonance curve consists of two parts: very narrow resonance centered at zero magnetic field superimposed on a broader one. The resonances are interesting for high-resolution spectroscopy and application in magnetometry.

Narrow structure in the coherent population trapping resonance in rubidium

Emilia A. Alipieva, S. Gateva, Elena T. Taskova +1 more

An investigation is reported of coherent resonance in the degenerate two-level system of the (Fg = 2 --> Fe = 1) transition of the 87Rb D1 line by means of a Hanle effect configuration. In a coherent population trapping experiment, a very narrow (approximately 1-kHz) resonance superimposed upon a broader resonance (approximately 100 kHz) was observed. The dependence of the width and the amplitude of the coherent resonance on the laser power density, on additional constant magnetic fields, on the laser frequency position along the fluorescence profile, and on Rb cells with different dimensions was investigated.

Magnetic field influence on coherent resonance in a degenerate two-level system

Emilia A. Alipieva, S. Gateva, Elena T. Taskova +2 more

Coherent population trapping (CPT) resonances in the degenerate two-level system of the Fg = 2 → Fe = 1) transition of the 87Rb D1 line were investigated in an uncoated vacuum cell by means of Hanle effect configuration. CPT signals with complex shape (narrow resonance approximately 2 mG superimposed on the wide one approximately 150 mG) were observed. The influence of weak transverse magnetic fields (0-1.2 G) on the amplitude and width of the two components was measured. The observed narrow resonances are interesting for application in high resolution spectroscopy and magnetometry.

Coherent effects in He I under laser interaction

Emilia A. Alipieva, S.I. Karabasheva, Elena T. Taskova

Summary form only given. The resonance laser interaction with an atomic system with degenerate levels creates coherent properties in the medium. Depending on the laser polarization and the experimental geometry it could be alignment, orientation or optical pumping. This coherence could be destroyed by application of a magnetic field, which removes the level degeneracy. This process has an effect on the optical characteristics of the medium, such as absorption and fluorescence from the levels involved. They show the resonance dependence on the applied magnetic field with widths, depending on /spl gamma//sub a/, /spl gamma//sub b/, and /spl gamma//sub ab/, where /spl gamma//sub I/ is the width of the upper or lower state of the transition, resonant to the laser beam, /spl gamma//sub ab/ is the width of the optical transition a/spl rarr/b. Using different experimental geometry, /spl gamma//sub a/, /spl gamma//sub b/, and /spl gamma//sub ab/ could be measured, as well as some rate constants of these levels. We investigated the coherent properties of the 2/sup 3/ P/spl rarr/3/sup 3/ D transition of He I under resonant laser radiation. Due to the peculiarities of the coherent signals, registered in the lateral and forward direction the cross-section for velocity selective collisions for the 3/sup 3/ D He I level were obtained. The influence of the strong laser field on the widths and shapes of the signals was determined. The cross-section, for depolarizing collisions of the 3/sup 3/ D level was measured, too.

Coherent population trapping resonance on degenerate two-level system for magnetic field measurement

Emilia A. Alipieva, S. Gateva, Elena T. Taskova

Coherent population trapping (CPT) resonances on the degenerate two-level system of the (Fg=2→Fe=1) transition of the 87Rb D1 line were investigated in an uncoated vacuum cell by means of level-crossing type experiments-sweeping a magnetic field around zero value and using a single laser beam. The two-photon resonance manifests itself as fluorescence canceling when the system of levels is degenerate (at zero point of magnetic field). The influence of weak transverse magnetic fields on the amplitude and width of the resonance was investigated. The CPT resonances were observed with linear, circular and elliptical polarized laser light. Transverse magnetic field widens the resonances obtained by linear and circular polarization but splits the resonance created by slightly elliptically polarized laser light. The dependence of this splitting on the elliptical ratio and experimental geometry were investigated. Due to its narrow width and sensitivity to low magnetic fields (< 1 G) this resonance is very promising for small magnetic field measurement.

Power dependence of the coherent population trapping resonances at different registration

S. Gateva, Emilia A. Alipieva, Elena T. Taskova

The investigation of the coherent population trapping (CPT) resonance on the degenerate two-level system of the (Fg=2→Fe=1) transition of the 87Rb D1 line by means of Hanle effect configuration in an uncoated vacuum cell (Opt. Lett. 28, 1817, 2003), has shown that the measured in fluorescence resonance has a complex shape: a very narrow (about 1mG) resonance superimposed on a broader one (about few tens mG). In this work the narrow and wide CPT resonances are registered in fluorescence, transmitted light and Faraday rotation. The dependence of the CPT resonances structures width and amplitude are measured at different laser power densities when the registration was in fluorescence and transmission. While the narrow resonance width doesn't change in the limits of the accuracy of our measurements, the wide resonance width dependence is complex and it is different in fluorescence and transmission. The origin of the observed dependencies and the differences between CPT signals observed in fluorescence and transmission are discussed.

Potential of the Single-Frequency CPT Resonances for Magnetic Field Measurement

Emilia A. Alipieva, S. Gateva, Elena T. Taskova

Coherent population trapping (CPT) resonances on degenerate two-level system of D/sub 1/ line of /sup 87/Rb were investigated with single-frequency laser excitation in Hanle configuration. Their sensitivity to stray magnetic fields was examined for linear, elliptical, and circular laser polarization. A methodology for magnetic field (MF) measurement using the CPT resonance is proposed. The sensitivity of the system to weak magnetic fields was evaluated and a magnetic field of 3 nT was unambiguously detected.
