“…At first, we consider the flat distribution for , which was successfully applied to RЈ color centers in LiF crystals. 41 It brings a logarithmic time dependence of the hole area, that is, a straight hole-growth line against burning time in log-linear scale. As is found in Fig.…”

We investigated the hole-burning phenomena and homogeneous linewidth in Pr 3ϩ -doped Y 2 O 3 -based crystals under the systematic control of disorder in the crystal. When divalent ions are doped into an Y 2 O 3 :Pr 3ϩ crystal, holes due to rearrangement of local structure around Pr 3ϩ ions are burned. The burning curves are successfully analyzed in terms of a distributed tunneling rate model for hole formation. The burning efficiency from this analysis and the homogeneous linewidth become larger as the crystal includes a larger amount of divalent ions. The interaction of Pr 3ϩ ions with oxygen vacancies is thought to be one of the origins of the hole production and the line broadening. The interaction length between Pr 3ϩ ions and oxygen vacancies is discussed.

“…Holes can be erased by raising the sample temperature to more than 200 K. Laser-induced color center formation has been demonstrated. So far in LiF hole burning was demonstrated at five ZPLs including the previous works [11,12] and four of them are useful for data storage. Thus the optical data storage capacity of LiF is much higher than that known previously for this material.…”

“…FM atomic spectroscopy has included measurement of small absorption and/or dispersion signals in circumstances for which the light is treated in both a classical and quantum mechanical fashion [5][6][7]. FM spectroscopy has also been used in condensed matter systems to explore various perturbations to solid crystal structures [8,9]. All of these applications use first harmonic demodulation (1f), in which the transmission signal is demodulated at the same frequency as that at which the laser is modulated.…”

We present a detailed analysis of an application of frequency modulation (FM) spectroscopy in the high modulation depth limit. We have recently completed and reported a measurement of the Stark shift in the indium 5p 1/2 → 6s 1/2 410 nm transition using this spectroscopy method [Ranjit, et al. Phys. Rev. A 87, 032506 (2013)]. FM spectroscopy proved essential to resolve spectroscopic features in an atomic beam where the optical depth was ∼ 10 −3 . A dual-modulation scheme is described which ensures truly background-free FM signals even in the low-density limit. Lock-in detection of the FM signal was accomplished using both the fundamental (1f) and second-harmonic (2f) modulation frequencies. A derivation of both the 1f and 2f signal line shapes in the high-modulation-depth limit is presented. These line shapes form the basis for quantitative fits to a wide variety of experimental FM spectra.
