Abstract:With the recent development of extremely thin vapor cells (ETC), whose thickness varies locally in a typical range 50 nm-1000 nm [l], we have embarked in the exploration of the prospects offered by this new tool for laser spectroscopy and studies of the atom-surface interaction.In the last years, we had demonstrated a novel principle of sub-Doppler spectroscopy based on the fact, that in a short column of dilute vapor, the atoms fly wall-to wall and exhibit an anisotropic distribution of free flight. Indeed, f… Show more
