The purpose of the present paper is to illustrate some selected aspects of high resolution laser spectroscopy of Rydberg atoms,
rather than giving an extensive review of the state of the art. The following topics will be discussed: (i) Excitation and
detection of Ba Rydberg atoms with principal quantum numbers up ton≲300; (ii) Stark effect and atomic diamagnetism of high-n Ba Rydberg states in thel-mixing region, (iii) Resonance in singlet-triplet mixing of 6snp1P1 and 6snd1D2 Ba Rydberg states deduced from hyperfine structure measurements. 相似文献

We report a new approach to intense-field photoionization that is based on the ad hoc assumption that m photons of energy
arriving within a typical electronic response time are effectively equivalent to a single photon of energy
. The heuristic model contains no adjustable parameters and unifies apparent multiphoton and field aspects. Moreover, nonsequential, suppressed and above-threshold ionization phenomena become readily understandable. Predicted ionization intensities are in satisfactory agreement with available experimental data ranging from C6H6 to Ne3 + , from femtosecond to nanosecond laser pulses, and from ultraviolet to infrared laser radiation.Received: 20 January 2004, Published online: 17 August 2004PACS:

The state transfer from cesium nS (n = 45?53) states to Stark (product) states induced by a weak electric field (WEF) pulse was investigated using the state-selective field ionization method in a standard magneto-optic trap (MOT). The WEF pulse shifts the nS Rydberg states that anticross with the (n ? 4) hydrogen-like manifolds, causing state transitions from the initial excited nS state to the Stark states. The mechanism of transfer was investigated by changing the rising and falling time of the WEF pulse and the switching off time of the external field pulse had an important role during the evolution process of product states. The population of the product states is also measured as a function of the principal quantum number and Rydberg densities. 相似文献

A sensitive method of detecting Rydberg atoms of Rb is described. The excitation source is a continuous-wave frequency doubled dye laser and detection is by a spacecharge limited thermionic triode. By applying a small electric field 2S, 2P and 2D series can be excited directly from the ground state. Term value for the 2S and 2D series up to 54 2S and 52 2D have been measured using the 2P states as references. 相似文献

We describe the details of an experiment using an atomic beam of rubidium which allowed us to detect by field ionization techniques the np Rydberg states from n = 28 up to n = 78, to detect also ns and nd states using a Stark mixing, and for all of these detected states to check the classical law Ec = [16n*4]?1 concerning the critical ionizing electric field Ec. It turns out that for n as high as 65 this law is quite well verified. 相似文献

The autoionization mechanisms of dense nP3/2 (n = 20–97) Rydberg gases of 87Rb atoms in the spontaneous evolution were investigated for the first time. By observing the characteristic time of the electrons generated through autoionization process, the dependence of autoionization mechanisms (black-body radiation, electron–Rydberg collision, and Penning ionization) on the principal quantum number n of initial nP states was demonstrated. The dependence on the number n in nP Rydberg atoms is similar to those in nD Rydberg atoms. 相似文献

A new technique is described which allows Doppler-free, isotope-selective excitation of atoms by continuous wave laser radiation and continuous ionization of the atoms by an electric field. The atoms are excited to high Rydberg states in an electric-field-free region of a collimated atomic beam. Because the lifetimes of Rydberg atoms are long they can reach a spatially separated region of the atomic beam where they are ionized by a continuous electric field with a probability of unity. In the case of lithium we obtained a 103 times larger ion signal by field ionization of Rydberg atoms than by direct photoionization from low excited states. 相似文献

The lifetimes of high Rydberg states of the methyl halides CH3I, CH3Br and CH3Cl have been studied. A pulsed dye laser tuned near half the ionization energy was used, with preprogrammed field pulses, and the high Rydberg states of the compounds in selected ranges of n values were ionized after a variable delay. Plots of the electron signal versus delay yielded information about the Rydberg state lifetime. The clearest trend was found for around n = 120–160: the lifetimes of the states decreased by more than an order of magnitude from CH3I (τ ≈12.3 μs) through CH3Br to CH3C1. Within the range studied, the theoretically predicted increase in lifetimes (n 5 or n 3) was not found, and in fact the highest group of states studied (with n > 215) exhibited for all three compounds relatively short lifetimes (≈2-3 μs), possibly due to collisional processes. 相似文献

Collisional coupling between theB, C, andD states of KrF is measured in a discharge pumped KrF laser. Detection of the time resolved populations in the three states
via measurement of the side fluorescence in theB→X, C→A, andD→X bands is used to record the collisional relaxation from theC andD state to theB state during laser emission. The experimentally determined limits for the collisional coupling times are τB-C≦1 ns and τB-D,τC-D<20 ns at total pressures of 2 bar. Investigation of theB→X fluorescence band shows that the vibrational manifold of theB state is not thermalized during laser emission. TheV-V,T coupling time is estimated to be τV-V,T=4±2 ns. The influence of collisional coupling on energy extraction in the KrF laser is discussed. 相似文献

We demonstrate significant enhancement of four-wave mixing in coherently driven mercury isotopes to generate vacuum-ultraviolet radiation at 125 nm. The enhancement is accomplished by preparation of the mercury atoms in a state of maximum coherence, i.e. maximum nonlinear-optical polarization, driven by Stark-chirped rapid adiabatic passage (SCRAP). In this technique, a pump laser at 313 nm excites the two-photon transition between the ground state 6s21S0 and the target state 7s 1S0 in mercury. A strong, off-resonant radiation field at 1064 nm generates dynamic Stark shifts. These Stark shifts serve to induce a rapid adiabatic passage process on the two-photon transition. During the process a coherent superposition of the two states is established, which enhances the nonlinear-optical polarization in the medium to the maximum possible value. The maximum coherence permits efficient four-wave mixing of a pump laser and an additional probe laser at 626 nm. The efficiency is further enhanced, as the SCRAP process allows to stimulate the complete set of different mercury isotopes to participate in the frequency conversion process. This enlarges the effective atomic density of the medium. Thus, we observe the generation of vacuum-ultraviolet radiation at 125 nm enhanced by more than one order of magnitude with respect to conventional frequency conversion. Parallel to the frequency conversion process, we monitored the evolution of the population in the medium by laser-induced fluorescence. These data demonstrate efficient coherent population transfer by SCRAP. 相似文献

We report on a laser system at a wavelength of 495 nm which is suitable for the excitations of low lying Rydberg states of
rubidium atoms. The system is based on frequency doubling of a seeded diode laser in a periodically poled waveguide crystal.
We achieve an output power of up to 35 mW and prove the single-frequency performance by direct two photon laser spectroscopy
of the rubidium 14D
5/2 and 14D
3/2 states. The measured fine structure splitting is consistent with quantum defect theory calculations. 相似文献

在铯原子室温蒸气池中研究了弱射频场中Rydberg原子阶梯型三能级系统的电磁感应透明(EIT)效应.铯原子基态6S_(1/2)、第一激发态6P_(3/2)和Rydberg 48D_(5/2)态形成阶梯型三能级系统,探测光共振作用于6S_(1/2)(F=4)→6P_(3/2)(F′=5)的跃迁,耦合光在Rydberg跃迁线6P_(3/2)(F′=5)→48D_(5/2)附近扫描,形成Rydberg原子EIT.当对铯原子施加一个80 MHz的弱射频电场时,48D_(5/2)Rydberg原子的EIT光谱发生Stark频移和分裂,同时产生由射频场调制Rydberg能级的偶数级边带,测量结果与Floquet理论模拟的结果相符合.同时,改变弱射频电场的频率研究了铯Rydberg能级的自电离效应对Rydberg原子Stark谱的影响,据此,我们提出将电极板置于铯原子蒸气池内的方案以减少自电离效应的影响.在弱射频Stark谱中,mj=5/2的Stark谱与mj=1/2,3/2的二级边带形成多个能级交叉,这些能级交叉点提供了一种基于原子的精确校准射频电场的新方法. 相似文献

C = 1/2 or J
C = 3/2. The ionization is monitored through observation of the photoelectrons with an energy resolution ΔE = 150 meV which is sufficient to distinguish the ionization processes into the two ionization continua. Pronounced and robust
dark resonances are observed in the ionization rate whenever is tuned to resonance with one of the ns- or nd-Rydberg states. The dark resonances are due to efficient population trapping in the atomic ground state 5p6

S
0 through the suppression of excitation of the intermediate state 5p
56p[1/2]0. The resolution is sufficient to resolve the hyperfine structure of the ns-Rydberg levels for odd xenon isotopes. The hyperfine splitting does not vary significantly with n in the given range. Results from model calculations taking the natural isotope abundance into account are in good agreement
with the observed spectral structures. Pronounced dark resonances are also observed when the dressing radiation field with
is generated from a laser with poor coherence properties. The maximum reduction of the ionization signal clearly exceeds
50%, a value which is expected to be the maximum, when the dip is caused by saturation of the transition rate between the
intermediate and the Rydberg state due to incoherent radiation. This work demonstrates the potential of dark resonance spectroscopy
of high lying electronic states of rare gas atoms.
