Abstract

Saturated absorption spectroscopy is a powerful technique that provides valuable information about gas-phase atomic targets, including not only the precise positions of transitions but also the effects of velocity-changing collisions, which manifest as changes in the shape of the peaks. However, using a lock-in amplifier inappropriately can generate artifact side peaks, potentially leading to a misinterpretation of results. To investigate the emergence of these artifacts, we conducted numerical calculations based on the basic Lambert–Beer’s law. Our model reproduced the artifact side peaks and revealed that these artifacts become more significant as the transmittance of the probe laser decreases.
