An intense laser and a probe laser in near resonance with the sodium 3S/sub 1/2/ ..-->.. 3P/sub 1/2/ and 3P/sub 1/2/ ..-->.. 4D/sub 3/2/ transitions, respectively, produce a three-photon ionization current used to study the broadening and Rabi splitting of the 3P/sub 1/2/ intermediate state as a function of probe-laser tuning. We find a narrow, intense-laser detuning region where the peak heights ratio of the Rabi-split 3P/sub 1/2/ doublet is reversed from that predicted for a monochromatic laser field. This is attributed to the finite (approx. GHz) laser linewidth.
