Nonlinear Optical Processes by Van der Waals Interaction during Collision

Stephen E. Harris, D. B. Lidow

We describe an optical process where off-diagonal optical excitation of a first atomic species is coupled during collision to a second species. This coupling leads to new types of nonlinear optical processes, and allows large cross sections for inelastic collision between atoms with nonresonant energy levels.

The authors demonstrate a new method for measuring the C${}_{6}$ van der Waals coefficient of the Rb-Rb interaction potential from the loss rate of atoms confined in a shallow atom trap of tunable depth. The technique is based on the universal nature of the room-temperature collisions, which depends only on the long-range potential between the collision partners.
