中文摘要：

采用双光子共振非简并四波混频测量了Ar缓冲气压引起的Ba原子里德伯6snd1D2谱线系的碰撞展宽和频移,计算了n=16—33的碰撞展宽截面和频移截面.本方法是一种纯光学的测量技术,当采用窄带激光器时可以获得里德伯态的消多普勒光谱.与传统实验方法测量到的里德伯态纵向弛豫的碰撞展宽不同,本方法可以研究碰撞引起的两能态间横向弛豫的展宽.

英文摘要：

We apply two-photon resonant nondegenerate four-wave mixing with a resonant intermediate state for observing the broadening and the shifting of the barium Rydberg 6snd 1D2 series by collision with argon.The collision broadenings and the collision shifting cross sections are measured for n = 16-33.This technique is a purely optical means,and can achieve Doppler-free resolution of narrow spectral structures of Rydberg levels when the incident lasers have narrow bandwidths.Different from other experimental methods of studying the pressure dependence of the longitudinal relaxation rate of Rydberg states,our method is to investigate the pressure dependence of the transverse relaxation rate of the transition.
