Abstract
The influence of Light Induced Atomic Desorption (LIAD) on the potassium D2 line magneto-optical resonances in uncoated buffer-gas optical cell is investigated. LIAD effect reduces the drawbacks of conventional heating for achieving high atomic density that is essential for many spectroscopy-based applications. Another feature of LIAD is the impact on the dwelling time of the atoms when colliding with the surface of the cell. In this work we investigate LIAD from point of view to distinguish the influence of LIAD on the atomic density from the dwelling time as well as to control and improve the parameters of magneto-optical resonances in potassium vapor. The results are interesting for development of new precise optical sensors and devices for various applications.
