Abstract
Various magnetic resonances appearing in optical pumping experiments have been analysed theoretically and experimentally. However, there is little work on the saturation effects caused by strong RF fields. Recently, The saturation effects of the multiple quantum resonances and of the Haroche resonances have been investigated by Stenholm (1972) and by Tsukada and Ogawa (1973). The saturation effects are treated for the more general case of a static magnetic field in an arbitrary direction with respect to the oscillating RF field. The experimental results are compared with the exact solutions computed by the numerical integration of the Bloch equation. It is shown experimentally and theoretically that the resonances similar to the Haroche resonance appear at omega /sub ///=n omega , where omega /sub ///= gamma H/sub ///, n is an integer, H/sub /// is the parallel component of the static magnetic field with respect to the oscillating RF field, and gamma is the gyromagnetic ratio.
