RESUMO

With quantum Bloch equations and sodium cell based experiment, we systematically resolved optical repumping mechanism of sodium atoms, a path to brighter sodium laser guide star (SLGS) that would be accepted by worldwide observatories. Besides the former studies, we detailed the population distribution of sodium atoms with and without repumping, which makes the repumping mechanism easy to understand. Experimental results based on a buffer gas free sodium cell and a single frequency laser implies that the optimum repumping frequency offset is 1712 MHz, and the repumping power fraction should be 10-18%. The light intensity depended character of repumping is also carried out. We learned that future SLGS pumped by higher effective light intensity would benefit more from repumping. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first systematic investigation of repumping mechanism using a single mode sum-frequency laser, which gives thorough support for previous numerical work and shows that the lab bench experiment could be used as an intermediate link between theoretical modeling and on-sky test.
