Nonlinear resonances in a system of separated optical fields under the influence of the recoil and quadratic Doppler effects

Abstract

A theoretical analysis is made of a resonant interaction of two-level atoms with the field of three strong spatially separated standing waves. It is shown that this interaction should give rise to a resonance of width equal to the reciprocal of the transit time between the fields and this resonance should be observed for all rational values of the ratio of the distances by which the waves are separated in space. Calculations are made of the corrections to the flux of particles excited in an atomic beam and to the power absorbed by a gas because of the interaction of atoms with the three fields. It is found that because of recoil a resonance of this kind splits into an infinite series of components separated by intervals of the order of the recoil frequency. The results are given of a numerical calculation of the strongest components of this resonance. The shift and deformation of lines due to quadratic Doppler effect are considered. The results of the calculations are compared with the available experimental data.

Theory of a resonant interaction of a gas of atoms with standing-wave pulses separated in time

B Ya Dubetskiĭ, Семибаламут Владимир Михайлович

A solution is obtained to the problem of a resonant interaction of a gas of atoms with the field of three strong standing-wave pulses separated in time. A calculation is reported of a correction to the power absorbed by the gas, which oscillates near the center of an atomic line as a function of the field frequency with a characteristic scale of the order of the reciprocal of the time delay between the pulses. It is shown that a signal then appears for all rational values of the ratio of the delays between the pulses and it is related to the transfer—along the time axis—of higher spatial harmonics of the polarization of a medium and of the level populations.

Nonlinear Ramsey resonance of the number of excited particles

B Ya Dubetskiĭ, Семибаламут Владимир Михайлович

An analysis is made of the interaction of three spatially separate standing Gaussian waves with an atomic beam. The case of a Doppler-broadened transition is considered. An expression is obtained for the correction to the resonance in the number of excited particles, the width of the correction being inversely proportional to the transit time between the waves. The analysis is carried out for a weak field. Numerical calculations of the amplitude and profile of the resonance are reported. The optimal (in respect of the field intensity) conditions for the observation of this resonance are determined.

Theory of the nonlinear Ramsey resonance in the optical part of the spectrum

B Ya Dubetskiĭ

It is shown that the interaction of three standing-wave light beams with a low-pressure gas gives rise to a narrow absorption power resonance. The width of this resonance is related to the transit time of gas atoms between the beams. The weak-field case is analyzed. A formula for a Held of arbitrary intensity is obtained for the situation when the dimensions of the beams are much smaller than the distances between them. Numerical calculations are reported of the resonance amplitude and profile. Optimal (in respect of the field intensity) conditions for the observation of the effect are determined. If the distances between the beams are sufficiently large, it should be possible to observe resonances of width equal to the homogeneous width of atomic radiation lines in spite of the considerable field and transit broadening. The possibility of using this power resonance in stabilization of the emission frequency of gas lasers is considered.

Two-photon resonance in a standing-wave field under conditions of longitudinal interaction with an atomic beam

E. V. Baklanov, B Ya Dubetskiĭ, V. A. Ulybin

An analysis is made of the feasibility of obtaining two-photon absorption resonances of 10–100 Hz width under conditions of longitudinal interaction with a standing-wave field. The long atom– field interaction time makes it possible to increase the resonance intensity. It is established that in a system with a beam of atoms propagating along an optical beam, the contribution of slow atoms results in the formation in the second derivative of the line profile of a resonance characteristic with a radiative width. An analysis is made of the influence of the quadratic Doppler effect, Stark effect, and saturation.

Field broadening and shifts of nonlinear power resonances in low-pressure gases

Семибаламут Владимир Михайлович, Е. А. Титов

A calculation is made of the absorption coefficient of a standing-wave field in a gas of two-level molecules allowing for transit effects to within the second order of the saturation parameter. The rate of the field broadening of a nonlinear power resonance is investigated for various dimensions of a light beam. An analysis is also made of the rates of the field shift of the maximum of such a nonlinear resonance because of the quadratic Doppler effect and hyperfine structure of the line.

Two-photon absorption resonance in the presence of transit effects

E. V. Baklanov, B Ya Dubetskiĭ

An analysis is made of the influence of transit effects on the profile of a two-absorption line of a gas interacting with a standing wave field. It is shown that in the case of a confined light beam the resonance width is governed by the transit times of atoms across the beam. When two light beams separated by a large distance are present, there is an additional resonance line of width which is the reciprocal of the transit time between the beams. This resonance is analyzed allowing for the relaxation of atomic levels.
