Abstract

Optically-dense alkali-metal vapor cells with low optical losses are widely used in quantum precision measurements, yet atomic behaviors in coated cells still need further study. We developed an octadecyltrichlorosilane (OTS) anti-relaxation and dielectric anti-reflection coated multipass optical cell filled with rubidium vapor at high density, and investigated the spin relaxation as well as the spin noise of the atomic ensembles. High contrast spin noise spectrum was observed and we find that the quantum coherence lifetime is equal to the classical transverse spin relaxation time. Number density measurements give the spin-exchange possibility of 14% between rubidium atoms trapped in the coating.
