Abstract
The results of saturated absorption spectroscopy of the intercombination S- 1(0)-P-3(1), transition of magnesium atoms at 457 nm in an external absorpt ion cell are presented. A laser system based on a Ti:Sa laser with frequenc y doubling in a LBO nonlinear crystal was used in these experiments. Satura ted absorption resonances of magnesium in an external cell at the S-1(0)-P- 3(1), transition have been obtained for the first time. Pressure broadening of resonances equal to 12.5 +/- 1.5 kHz/mTorr has been measured. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
