Abstract: | The sub-Doppler absorption laser spectroscopy at 728 nm transition from the 5D5/2 state to the 6 F state of cesium with linewidth near 10 MHz is first experimentally performed with indirect pumping from the ground state 6S_(1/2)to the state 7P_(3/2)by a 455.5 nm diode laser.Using a 455.5 nm diode laser as an indirect pump laser,several excited states will be populated due to spontaneous decay from the 7P state.We first implement the sub-Doppler absorption laser spectroscopy at 728 nm from the 5D_(5/2)state to the 6F state when Cs atoms within thermal glass cell decay to the 5D_(5/2) state.Due to velocity transfer effect,the hyperfine structure of 5D_(5/2)shows a mixed and complicated pattern but very clear structure when the 455.5 nm pumping laser is counter-propagating(or co-propagating)with the 728 nm probing laser. |
