Abstract: | g =4→Fe
′=5 transition. As the detuning becomes larger, the equilibrium temperature becomes lower. When the detuning is larger than
150 MHz, the influence of the Fg=4→Fe
′=4 transition also becomes significant. We show our numerical analysis of polarization gradient cooling, taking into account
actual sublevels of the ground state and two excited states. We conclude that it is preferable to use a detuning of greater
than 180 MHz, to get both a high deceleration and low equilibrium temperature.
