Abstract:

The frequency characteristics that determine the response rate of atomic narrow-band fluorescence filters are calculated. Atomic cesium and rubidium vapors are used as the working medium. The response rates of various filters are compared. The cesium filter at a wavelength of 456 nm turned out to be the best.
