Resumo: |
This work shows the results of an experimental study of the generation of a fluorescence signal in the blue range of the electromagnetic spectrum (421 nm), when a Rubidium atomic vapor inside a heated optical cell interacts with a pair of laser beams, one cw from a diode laser (in the transition 5S1/2 -> 5P3/2) and one ultrashort pulse train from a Ti:sapphire laser (in the transition 5P3/2 -> 5D5/2). The laser beams pass through the vapor cell in a copropagating con guration and are focused into the cell, having perpendicular polarizations. We have observed coherent and acumulation e ects in the system, because the lifetimes of the excited states are larger than the temporal interval between the optical pulses. Both lasers have wavelengths near 780 nm, although the pulsed laser has a large bandwidth and can make a non-ressonant two-photon transition at the wavelengths 780 nm and 776 nm. The excited atoms can decay to the ground state (5S1/2) by the intermediate state 6P3/2, emiting a fluorescence signal in the blue range at 421 nm. We study the response of the fluorescence signal as a function of the many parameters of the system, such as: the frequency and the intensity of the diode laser, the atomic density in the optical cell, and the e ect of an optical pump from the diode laser on the detected signal. |
