We demonstrate a blackbody radiation thermometer based on optically excited rubidium atoms in a vapor cell. Operating as a calibrated contact thermometer from 308K to 343 K, we realize temperature uncertainty as low as 0.04 %, and statistical temperature

Contributions of argon, nitrogen, and oxygen to air broadening in the oxygen A-band

April 16, 2025

Leah Stevenson, Mitchio Okumura, Joseph Hodges, Erin Adkins
The oxygen (O2) A-band is used to determine the air mass in ground- and space-based remote sensing measurements because the O2 mixing ratio in Earth's atmosphere is constant. Because errors in the retrieved air mass propagate to measurements of target gas

Erin Adkins, Sergei Yurchenko, Wilfrid Somogyi, Joseph Hodges
Accurate intensities of the O2 A-band 〖[b〗^1 Σ_g^+⟵X^3 Σ_g^- (0,0)] centered about 760 nm are essential to reduce biases in satellite- and ground-based remote measurements of column-integrated air mass and greenhouse gas concentration. In support of these

Quantum Emitters Induced by High Pressure and UV Laser Irradiation in Multilayer GaSe
