摘要
We study nonlinear optical effects in the laser excitation of Rydberg states. 5S(1/2) and 5P(3/2) levels of Rb-85 are coupled by a strong laser field and probed by a weak laser tuned to the 5P(3/2)-44D Rydberg resonance. We observe high contrast Autler-Townes spectra which are dependent on the pump polarization, intensity, and detuning. The observed behavior agrees with calculations, which include the effect of optical pumping.
