Ground state and first excited state of Rubidium and transitions involved in the optical pumping (considering no nuclear spin)
Animation for PC (S. Jubera)
Two optical pumping setups have been built:
the first one based on a Titanium:Sapphire laser
the second one using laser diodes
Our biological applications of laser-polarized xenon can be sorted in three categories, corresponding to different levels of details:
