Laser induced birefringence in a wavelength-mismatched cascade system of inhomogeneously broadened Yb atoms

Tai Hyun Yoon, Chang Yong Park, Sung Jong Park

We report the observation of laser induced birefringence (LIB) in a wavelength-mismatched cascade system (J=0 \leftrightarrow J=1 \leftrightarrow J=0 transitions) of inhomogeneousl…
