Fluorescence of rubidium in a submicrometer vapor cell: spectral resolution of atomic transitions between Zeeman sublevels in a moderate magnetic fie…
2005
It is experimentally demonstrated that use of an extremely thin cell (ETC) with the thickness of a Rb atomic vapor column of ∼400 nm allows one to resolve a large number of individual transitions between Zeeman sublevels of the D1 line of 87Rb and 85Rb in the sub-Doppler fluorescence excitation spectra in an external magnetic field of ∼200 G. It is revealed that due to the peculiarities of the Zeeman effect for different hyperfine levels of Rb, all allowed transitions between magnetic sublevels can be clearly resolved for 87RbF_g = 1 --> F_e = 1, 2 and F_g = 2 --> F_e = 1, 2 fluorescence excitation. Also, relatively good spectral resolution can be achieved for 85RbF_g = 2 --> F_e = 2, 3 flu…
Precise $\sf g_J$ - and $\sf g_I$ -factor measurements of Ba + isotopes
1998
Laser-microwave double and triple resonance experiments were performed on clouds of Ba+ ions confined in a Penning ion trap to induce and detect electronic and nuclear spin flip transitions. Collisions with buffer gas molecules in the trap was used to reduce the lifetime of a long lived metastable state of the ions, in which population trapping might occur, and to cool the ions to the ambient temperature. Loss of ions from the trap by collisions were prevented by coupling the magnetron and reduced cyclotron motions by an additional r.f. field at the sum frequency of the two motions. Electronic Zeeman transitions in 138Ba+ and 135Ba+ were observed at a full width of about 3 kHz at a transiti…

The $\mathsf{g_{\scriptscriptstyle J}}$ -factor in the ground state of Ca $^\mathsf{+}$
2003
We have determined the $g_{\scriptscriptstyle J}$ -factor of the Ca + ion in the electronic 4S1/2 ground state on a cloud of ions confined in a Penning trap with a superimposed magnetic field of 1.43 T. We use a c.w. laser to prepare a Zeeman substate by optical pumping and induce $\Delta m_J=1$ transitions by a resonant microwave field at 40 GHz. Resonance is detected by a change in the fluorescence intensity originating from the ion cloud. We obtain a full width in the resonance of a few kHz and the fractional uncertainty of the line center, taking the average of several measurements, was 4 x 10-8. After calibrating the magnetic field by the cyclotron frequency of electrons stored in the …
Precise ground-state hyperfine splitting inii173
1987
A laser-microwave double-resonance experiment on electrodynamically trapped $^{173}\mathrm{Yb}^{+}$ ions has been performed and a value of \ensuremath{\Delta}${\ensuremath{\nu}}_{\mathrm{h}\mathrm{f}\mathrm{s}=10\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}491\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}720239.55}$\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.09 Hz for the ground-state hyperfine separation has been determined. This value is corrected for small Zeeman and second-order Doppler shifts. Combined with a previous similar measurement on $^{171}\mathrm{Yb}^{+}$ and with the known ${g}_{I}$ values of both isotopes, we obtain a value of -0.004 25(6) for the differential hyperfine anomaly $^{171}\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Delta}}^{173}$.

A brief review is given of topics relating to dynamical processes arising in nonlinear interactions between light and resonant systems (atoms or molecules) in the presence of a magnetic field.
Investigation of Hg resonance 184.9nm line profile in a low-pressure mercury–argon discharge
2007
Abstract The line profiles of 184.9 nm Hg resonance line emitted from a Hg low-pressure high-frequency electrodeless discharge lamp, containing Hg 198 isotope, have been measured by means of a Zeeman scanning spectrometer at the mercury cold spot temperature values in the range of 0–23 °C. Two different methods were used to determine the real spectral line profile and to separate the instrument function: (i) solving the ill-posed inverse problem by means of the Tikhonov's regularization method; and (ii) the mathematical modelling by means of a non-linear multi-parameter chi-square fit. The real Hg 184.9 nm spectral line profiles, determined by both methods, are compared. Influence of instru…
Diagnostics of capillary mercury–argon high-frequency electrodeless discharge using line shapes
2005
Abstract The profiles of the 253.7 nm spectral line, emitted from the capillary argon–mercury isotope high-frequency electrodeless discharge, are measured by means of a pressure-scanned Fabry–Perot spectrometer. Spectral line profiles are collected from two lamps at the argon pressure of 2 and 10 Torr, in dependence on the discharge current and Hg vapor densities corresponding to the cold spot temperatures of 25–80 °C. By means of a multi-parameter non-linear line profile fitting procedure of multiple overlapping self-reversed Voigt profiles, the temperature of the radiating atoms and the optical density were estimated. The capillary and spherical discharge conditions were compared. The opt…
Isotope dependence of the Zeeman effect in lithium-like calcium
2016
The magnetic moment μ of a bound electron, generally expressed by the g-factor μ=−g μB s ħ−1 with μB the Bohr magneton and s the electron's spin, can be calculated by bound-state quantum electrodynamics (BS-QED) to very high precision. The recent ultra-precise experiment on hydrogen-like silicon determined this value to eleven significant digits, and thus allowed to rigorously probe the validity of BS-QED. Yet, the investigation of one of the most interesting contribution to the g-factor, the relativistic interaction between electron and nucleus, is limited by our knowledge of BS-QED effects. By comparing the g-factors of two isotopes, it is possible to cancel most of these contributions an…

The high-frequency electrodes light sources (HFELS) are widely used as bright radiators of narrow and intensive spectral lines covering spectral region from VUV to IR. In this work we shall give a short overview of our experience in preparation of HFELS, containing He, H, Rb, Hg, Zn, Pb, As, Sb, Bi, Tl, Hg-Cd, Hg-Zn, Hg-Cd-Zn, Se-Te for different applications. Special attention would be paid for HFELS use in Zeeman mercury analyzer, in Atomic absorption analyzer and Angle and glass refractive index measurement system.© (2001) COPYRIGHT SPIE--The International Society for Optical Engineering.
