Nonlinear forward scattering in cesium vapor: experiment with simultaneous scanning of laser frequency and B-field.
We present the results of an experimental study of nonlinear magneto-optical rotation in a buffer-gas-free uncoated Cs cell on hyperfine transitions F(g) = 3 --> F(e) = 2, 3, 4 of the D(2) line at high laser irradiance (up to 40 mW/cm(2)). The measurements were done in a forward scattering configuration, with simultaneous linear scanning of laser frequency and magnetic field at different temporal rates. The latter revealed, in a single measurement, the dependences of maximum nonlinear Faraday signal and the corresponding B-field on the laser frequency within the Doppler profile.
