Abstract

The observation of optical bistability in the D lines of sodium vapour contained in both a Fabry-Perot etalon and a ring cavity is reported. As well, an enhanced transmission feature which appears under appropriate conditions in the Fabry-Perot etalon only is presented. This feature is interpreted in terms of a non-absorption resonance in an inverted V three-level model of the sodium D transitions.
