Measuring atomic oscillator strengths by single atom spectroscopy

Jianwei Lee, Syed Abdullah Aljunid, Meng Khoon Tey +3 more

We propose a method for assessing the oscillator strengths of atomic transitions based on single atom spectroscopy. The method is based on a direct measurement of an AC Stark shift of atomic energy levels for the single atom trapped in an optical tweezer. The method is independent on a knowledge of the trapping field at the atom. The results can be applied to obtaining the previously unknown oscillator strengths for dipole transitions involving the first excited state of alkali metals.

Interference effects in the two-photon polarization spectra of alkali atoms in intermediate strength magnetic fields

P. C. Stancil, G. E. Copeland

The degree of linear polarization P L for two-photon absorption of alkali atoms in intermediate strength magnetic fields has been computationally investigated. Polarization spectra were obtained for n a s 2 S 1/2 to n b s 2 S 1/2 transitions with the photons in near resonance with intermediate 2 P j levels. Previous experiments and calculations in the absence of a magnetic held revealed a complete polarization reversal (P L approximately -100%) for frequencies near resonance between the 2 P 1/2 and 2 P 3/2 levels due to fine-structure coherence. Application of weak to intermediate strength fields induce additional depolarization features as a result of anomalous Zeeman splitting. The fine-structure depolarization feature disappears for strong fields (Paschen-Back regime), while the calculations predict that Zeeman depolarization persists though the transitions become forbidden. Magnetic-field-dependent polarization spectra can be measured in the laboratory with high precision and it should prove interesting to trace through the weak, intermediate, and strong field regimes.

Laser cooling of rare gases in metastable states

Fujio Shimizu, Kazuko Shimizu, Hiroshi Takuma

We report in this talk the first demonstration of the laser cooling of a metastatic atomic bean, and the transfer of cooled atoms between two different metastatic states. The laser cooling and trapping of neutral atoms have been demonstrated only on alkali atoms. It is of great interest to extend this technique to other atomic species. The standard cooling scheme for those atoms uses the ground state as the lower energy level of the cooling transition. The cooling transtion must have a sizable transition moment and its wavelength must be in the region where a continuous laser is available. Such an excited level can generally be found in alkali, alkali earths. For many transition and rare-earth metals, an adequate excited level can be found only in relatively high excited states.
