Visualizing strongly focused 3D light fields in an atomic vapor
Sphinx Svensson, Clare R. Higgins, Danielle Pizzey +2
Structured light, when strongly focused, generates highly confined vectorial electromagnetic field distributions which may feature a polarization component along the optical axis.…
Modelling spectra of hot alkali vapour in the saturation regime
Daniel R Häupl, Clare R Higgins, Danielle Pizzey +5
Laser spectroscopy of hot atomic vapours has been studied extensively. Theoretical models that predict the absolute value of the electric susceptibility are crucial for optimising…
Fine-structure changing collisions in Rb upon D2 excitation in the hyperfine Paschen-Back regime
Clare R. Higgins, Danielle Pizzey, Ifan G. Hughes
We investigate fine structure changing collisions in Rb vapour upon D2 excitation in a thermal vapour at 350 K; the atoms are placed in a 0.6 T axial magnetic field in order…
A device for magnetic-field angle control in magneto-optical filters using a solenoid-permanent magnet pair
Sharaa A. Alqarni, Jack D. Briscoe, Clare R. Higgins +4
Atomic bandpass filters are used in a variety of applications due to their narrow bandwidths and high transmission at specific frequencies. Predominantly these filters in the Farad…
Electromagnetically induced transparency in a V-system with Rb vapor in the hyperfine Paschen-Back regime
Clare R Higgins, Ifan G Hughes
We observe EIT in a V-system in a thermal rubidium-87 vapour in the hyperfine Paschen-Back regime, realised with a 0.6 T axial magnetic field. In this regime energy levels are no l…
Atomic line versus lens cavity filters: A comparison of their merits
Clare R. Higgins, Danielle Pizzey, Renju S. Mathew +1
We present a comparison between lens cavity filters and atomic line filters, discussing their relative merits for applications in quantum optics. We describe the design, characteri…
