Two types of magnetically induced (MI) transitions in cesium atoms were studied
experimentally and theoretically. The MI transitions are forbidden in the absence of magnetic …

Theoretical studies of the Faraday rotation (FR) effect in alkali vapors contained in extremely
thin cells are presented. It is shown that the spectra of the FR signal are well frequency …

In the early 1900s, the optics of atomic vapors played a key role in the origin of quantum
mechanics and its development into a full-scale quantitative theory. Optical transitions in …

This thesis presents the study of coherent light interaction with a sub-wavelength atomic
alkali vapor layer confined in a nano-cell and applications for the formation of narrow optical …
