Abstracts

EN

Magnetic field and its gradient measurements based on coherent population trapping resonances at the D_1 line of ^{87}Rb are performed by means of coupling two ground-state Zeeman sublevels belonging to different hyperfine levels to a common excited state. Two coherent laser fields with frequency difference of 6.8 GHz are used. They are produced by direct current modulation of a diode laser. The resonance splitting and broadening caused by the applied magnetic field is measured by scanning the laser modulation frequency around the ground-state hyperfine frequency.
