Formation of Narrow-Band N-Type Optical Resonance in Vapors of Potassium Atoms

  • Published:
Journal of Applied Spectroscopy Aims and scope

An N-type optical resonance that formed in the Λ-system of potassium atoms (D1 lines) using two CW narrow-band lasers and a spectroscopic cell with a length of 1.5 cm that contained vapors of potassium atoms and buffer neon gas with a partial pressure of 20 Torr was investigated. The N-type resonance was shown to be split into three equidistant components in a longitudinal magnetic field. The N-type resonance parameters formed in vapors of cesium and rubidium atoms were compared. It was found that the initial and final levels were the lower ground levels Fg = 1, 2 when the N-type resonance was formed.
