Dynamic Zeeman effect in paramagnetic emission and second harmonic generation
G Battaglia, G. Vetri
Abstract
It is suggested that the combined effect of a resonant magnetic field (dynamic Zeeman effect) and of the fluctuations due to spin-spin and spin-lattice interactions could give rise to inelastic components in the emission spectrum of a paramagnetic system. It is also shown that a similar effect can be expected in the second harmonic emission. It is found that if the Rabi frequency is much larger than the relaxation rates, both the resonant and the second harmonic spectra show the two side lines typical of the atomic resonant fluorescence. The results are illustrated by means of a semiclassical model. Plots of expected spectra as a function of the frequency are given for some realistic parameters of paramagnetic samples.
