Abstract

Spectroscopy of a Λ structure in 87Rb is performed with a mode locked laser. A dark line, resulting from population trapping between the hyperfine levels, is observed when the repetition rate is 1/57th of the hyperfine splitting. Simulation of coherent interaction of Rb atoms with laser pulses shows darklines corresponding to different submultiple of the hyperfine splitting. It is demonstrated experimentally and theoretically that the resonance width is insensitive to fluctuations in optical frequency.
