  • Abstract
    Resonance line shape and filling factor are two important parameters that condition the gain, oscillation threshold, output power, and short-term frequency stability of optically pumped alkali vapor masers. Both quantities are calculated using density matrix formalism and taking atomic motion into account. Some experimental verifications and methods for measuring the filling factor in a given configuration are indicated.
