General Overview
• For experiments in which spin polarized 3He is needed, lasers tuned to circularly polarized 795 nm light are used to optically pump Rb atoms into states that exchange spin with 3He nuclei through collisions.

The build up of nuclear spin
polarization in the gas ensemble is
simply described by )1()( / sutsat ePtP
The saturation polarization will be proportional to the amount of
laser power available in the region of D1 absorption of Rb.
Therefore one desires a laser with high power and a very
narrow linewidth in the region of absorption.

Goals
• To increase polarization of 3He target nuclei
• To develop a versatile and easily transportable system

These diodes put out 50 watts of laser
power at the source, and we get about
30 – 36 watts of laser power into our
system after losses.

Diode Lasers
• In semiconductor crystals the atomic spacing is very low.– Wave functions of electrons start to
overlap– Energy levels split satisfying the Pauli
exclusion principle– Energy level spacing ~10-18 eV
• The nearly continuous levels form “bands”

Diode Lasers
• “Impurity Recombinations” from Conduction Band to Valence Band
• Large Linewidths ~3nm• 1nm corresponds to 475GHz for our
setup;• 3nm ~1400 GHz• At modest pressures the acceptance
linewidth is ~40GHz• A lot of power wasted...or worse.

The Laser
• What is “smile”?– Displacement of a particular diode from
the mean position of the array of diodes.
– Causes linewidth broadening due to how the way light is fedback into the diode.
– We want “smile” to be as little as possible.

To reduce excessive feedback!
To change linearly polarized light to circularly polarized light
A wave plates performance depends on
the angle between the E field of the
polarized light and the fast axis of the wave
plate. It effects a 2θ rotation of the E field
where θ is the angle between the E field
and the fast axis.
Our mirrored grating preferentially diffracts
light with E field in one orientation and
simply reflects light with E field 90o
to the
first orientation. Thus we can essentially
rotate the plane of polarization of our laser
to control the amount of feedback we
need.•

Summary
• We will have a small, relatively light-weight, portable laser system
• We will be able to achieve higher polarizations of 3He than we can with the laser we have been using (40-50% up from ~25%)
• We spent a relatively small amount of money to achieve this

Applications
• Spin Exchange Optical Pumping– Tim’s Experiment– n+3He Experiment– Photodissociation of 3He at HIGS– Any experiment where you want Highly
spin polarized 3He

Concerns
• Losses– Try to minimize the number of things the
laser light has to interact with– Anti-reflection coatings on lenses– Compensate for SMILE
• Safety– Blindness– Fire
