Abstract

The magnetic-resonance lines of alkali atoms are broadened considerably by the spin-exchange collisions for a radio-frequency magnetometer operating at high temperature. The resonance linewidths of cesium atoms are derived by solving the relaxation equations. When spin-exchange relaxation dominates, a light narrowing effect is predicted. For the cesium atomic radio-frequency magnetometer operates at high temperature, a remarkable narrowing of the cesium magnetic-resonance lines are observed by increasing the pump power. The Cs-Cs spin-exchange relaxation is partially suppressed by light narrowing. This study helps to expand the applications of radio-frequency magnetometers in the high-sensitivity radio-frequency magnetic-field detection.
