Optical double resonance and zero field level crossing spectroscopy applied to the 5p3 6s5S2 level in the Te-I spectrum
AbstractAs a first application of optical double resonance and zero field level crossing spectroscopy to the elements of the sixth group in the periodic table of the atoms, the 5p36s5S2 level in the Te-I spectrum was investigated using natural tellurium in a high temperature quartz cell. For the electronic Landé-factor and the natural radiative lifetime the following values were obtained:
$$g_J \left( {5p^3 6s^5 S_2 } \right) = - 1.9657\left( {12} \right),\tau \left( {5p^3 6s^5 S_2 } \right) = 71.8\left( {2.2} \right)ns.$$
