Vapor pressure dependence of spectral width of EIT in Lambda-level cesium molecular system

arXiv:0902.2745 · doi:10.1134/S1054660X10150077

Abstract

We have studied electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) in diatomic cesium molecules in a vapor cell by using tunable diode lasers. We have observed a sub-natural Lambda-resonance in an absorption molecular band at different cesium vapor pressures. The width of the EIT resonance shows a linear dependence on cesium vapor pressure. Narrow Lambda-resonances in molecules can be used as frequency references for femtosecond laser frequency combs.
