Yy. Liu et al., On the nonlinearity of the Zeeman effect of NO in the moderate field by intracavity laser magnetic resonance at 1842 cm(-1), PHYS LETT A, 272(1-2), 2000, pp. 80-85
With the high sensitivity and high resolution of the techniques of intracav
ity laser magnetic resonance spectroscopy, strong nonlinearity of the Zeema
n effect in the NO molecule has been observed in a moderate external field.
A fairly simple and effective method of modelling the 2nd order Zeeman eff
ect without recoursing to full matrix diagonalization has been developed an
d successfully used to analyze the nonlinearity of Zeeman effect in this Le
tter. Results agree well with those calculated by matrix diagonalization of
precise Halmiltonian in which the off-diagonal Zeeman interaction are incl
