Polarization transfer between oriented metastable helium atoms and neon atoms. A comparison of even and odd isotopes

Abstract

Collision-induced polarization transfer from optically pumped helium to excited states of neon is studied using various combinations of even and odd isotopes. It is found that, within our experimental accuracy of 10%, the resultant polarization is independent of the isotopic composition of the binary mixture. Possible applications using this mechanism are discussed.
