Ramsey fringes in the nonlinear Hanle effect in a metastable atomic beam

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

Evidence of coherence effects has been observed in the Zeeman sublevels by means of nonlinear level crossing in a metastable Ca beam with resonance width 3 orders of magnitude less than the radiative linewidth of the investigated transitions. By using two separate traveling waves, Ramsey-like fringes have been observed. The final measured are determined by the transit time, are weakly dependent on the magnetic-field inhomogeneities, and are widths independent of the natural width of the optical transitions and the laser bandwidth.
