Abstract
A theoretical and experimental study has been made of the effect of transverse optical pumping in the optical-rf double resonance of cesium atoms. The solution of Bloch type equations shows that the Hanle effect and new type resonances become notable in the weak magnetic field or for strong rf field, as the effect of the transverse pumping. The new type resonances appear in the unmodulated component and the components modulated at the first and the second harmonics of the applied rf frequency in the pumping light beam transmitted through the sample cell. It is predicted that the new type resonances are not only shifted but also broadened as the intensity of rf field increases. The shift, broadening and the intensity for observed new type resonances are in good agreement with the theoretical prediction.
