Three-level nonlinear spectroscopy of Coulomb collisions

S. A. Babin, S. G. Rautian, D. A. Shapiro


Abstract: Coulomb broadening in a three-level system is studied. Interference resonances are not broadened by collisions, differing from saturation resonances in this regard. Experimental spectra of generation on adjacent ion transitions and resonance fluorescence are interpreted. An increase in the output power of ion Raman lasers is predicted.
