Quantum beat spectroscopy of hyperfine structure in the 8p2P3/2 level of atomic cesium

Popov, Oleg Igorevich

Abstract Details

2012, Master of Science, Miami University, Physics.
Measurement of atomic polarization quantum beats are made to determine the hyperfine structure coefficients, magnetic dipole A and electric quadrupole B, in the 8p2P3/2 level of atomic cesium. Our experimental approach is a combination of a delayed-detection method with a pump-stimulated emission probe technique. According to the observed evolution of hyperfine structure dependent parameters, e.g. alignment and atomic polarization, by delaying the arrival time of the probe laser, the values of the A and B coefficients are obtained to be 7.412(25) MHz and 0.15(26) MHz respectively. Our experimental A and B values are in good agreement with the previous determinations within the error limits.
