Investigation of Anti-Relaxation Coatings for Alkali-Metal Vapor Cells Using Surface Science Techniques
S. J. Seltzer, D. J. Michalak, M. H. Donaldson +17
Many technologies based on cells containing alkali-metal atomic vapor benefit from the use of anti-relaxation surface coatings in order to preserve atomic spin polarization. In par…
Observation of a Large Atomic Parity Violation Effect in Ytterbium
K. Tsigutkin, D. Dounas-Frazer, A. Family +3
Atomic parity violation has been observed in the 6s^2 1S0 - 5d6s 3D1 408-nm forbidden transition of ytterbium. The parity-violating amplitude is found to be two orders of magnitude…
Electric-field-induced change of alkali-metal vapor density in paraffin-coated cells
D. F. Jackson Kimball, Khoa Nguyen, K. Ravi +6
Alkali vapor cells with antirelaxation coating (especially paraffin-coated cells) have been a central tool in optical pumping and atomic spectroscopy experiments for 50 years. We h…
Variation of the Fine-Structure Constant and Laser Cooling of Atomic Dysprosium
N. A. Leefer, A. Cingöz, D. Budker +6
Radio-frequency electric-dipole transitions between nearly degenerate, opposite parity levels of atomic dysprosium (Dy) were monitored over an eight-month period to search for a va…
Controlling atomic vapor density in paraffin-coated cells using light-induced atomic desorption
T. Karaulanov, M. T. Graf, D. English +10
Atomic-vapor density change due to light induced atomic desorption (LIAD) is studied in paraffin-coated rubidium, cesium, sodium and potassium cells. In the present experiment, low…
Production and detection of atomic hexadecapole at Earth's magnetic field
V. M. Acosta, M. Auzinsh, W. Gawlik +9
Anisotropy of atomic states is characterized by population differences and coherences between Zeeman sublevels. It can be efficiently created and probed via resonant interactions w…
