Abstract
Two frequency stabilized dye lasers and a sodium atomic beam are used to study the Autler-Townes effect in the aligned 3S , F = 2, , F = 3, MF = 3, → 4D , F = 4, MF = 4 states. This system is to a very good approximation an isolated three-level atom. The Autler-Townes doublet splittings are measured as a function of the intensities of the two lasers and their detunings from resonance. The experimental results are in good agreement with theory.Keywords
