Sub-Doppler and subnatural narrowing of an absorption line

Nemi Gavra, M. Rosenbluh

An experimental evidence of electromagnetically induce narrowing of an absorption line is presented. The width of this resonance is sub-Doppler and subnatural and it is confined between two closely spaced electromagnetically induced transparency windows.

Sub-Doppler and subnatural narrowing of an absorption line induced by interacting dark resonances in a tripod system

Chana Goren, A. D. Wilson‐Gordon, M. Rosenbluh +1 more

A method is presented for obtaining sub-Doppler and subnatural narrowing and increased absorption of a spectral line. The ultranarrow spectral line is confined between two closely spaced electromagnetically induced transparency windows in a nearly degenerate tripod atomic system formed by an ${F}_{g}=1\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{F}_{e}=0$ transition, split by a magnetic field. The system is driven by a $\ensuremath{\sigma}$-polarized pump and probed by a tunable $\ensuremath{\pi}$-polarized laser. It can be used to measure small magnetic fields and also as a magneto-optic switch.

Saturated absorption spectroscopy of 87Rb atoms using structured light: observation of narrow hyperfine and crossover resonances

Samim Akhtar, Aparajita Das, Jayanta K. Saha +1 more

Abstract An experiment on the saturated absorption spectroscopy (SAS) of 87Rb-D2 line is performed using the Laguerre–Gaussian (LG) beam as structured light. The theoretical simulation of which is done by considering a four-level atom-laser coupled system. The theoretically simulated spectra fairly match with the experimentally observed spectra. The line-width narrowing behavior of both the observed hyperfine and crossover resonances in the Doppler-broadened probe absorption spectra is attributed by the spatially dependent Rabi frequency of the pump LG beam irrespective of the characteristics of the probe beam. The results also illustrated that the narrowing behavior of the line shapes of the hyperfine structure using the LG beam is universal in nature, i.e. irrespective of hyperfine or crossover transitions. This structured light-induced narrowing of line-width of the sub-Doppler hyperfine and crossover resonances can be utilized for high-precision laser frequency locking at a particular hyperfine or crossover transition. Moreover, a significant narrowing of hyperfine and crossover resonances with the variation of the orbital angular momentum (OAM) number of the LG beam shows that the generated SAS signal can be manipulated by using the OAM of the structured light as a control knob.
