The exact steady-state solution of the optical Bloch equations for the density matrix of atoms interacting with a monochromatic field is found in a compact analytical form for closed Fg equals F yields Fe equals F + 1 transitions. The obtained solution is valid for arbitrary light ellipticity and intensity. Some applications of this new result are outlined.

An analytical and invariant expression is given for the steady-state density matrix of free atoms in a monochromatic radiation field with arbitrary intensity and arbitrary elliptical polarization. The field drives the closed transition F → F + 1, with arbitrary values of F . This is the only class of transitions where a closed analytical expression for the steady state was lacking. Some applications of this result are indicated.
