DATA & FILE OVERVIEW

Contains data supporting the publication "Modulation Transfer Spectroscopy of the D1 Transition of Potassium:
Theory and Experiment."

File List:

The directory "Potassium and Rubidium MTS and Absorption" contains the data for data for figure 3 of the paper. The are four files contained here:

-KD1_D2ParamsOptimal_circ_10VScan, The MTS and absorption signals for the D1 line of potassium. The first column is the piezo voltage of the laser, the second column is the absoprtion signal and the third column is the MTS signal.
-KD2_D2ParamsOptimal_circ_10VScan, The MTS and absorption signals for the D2 line of potassium. Columns same as above.
-RbD1_D2ParamsOptimal_circ, The MTS and absorption signals for the D1 line of rubidium. Columns same as above.
-RbD2_D2ParamsOptimal_circ, The MTS and absorption signals for the D2 line of rubidium. Columns same as above.

All data were recorded in the sig+ sig+ configuration. Parameters for this data can be found in the caption of fig. 3 of the publication.
Frequency to voltage calibration is 374.94 MHz/V.

The directory "Linear Parallel" contains the D1 MTS data taken in the lin parallel lin configuration. There are 21 files contained in this directory.

The spreadsheets which have headings from 000-180 contain the experimentally recorded MTS signal. The file name is the phase delay in AFG when that data was recorded.
For each of these files, the first row contains the piezo voltage of the laser and the second row contains the amplitude of the MTS signal.
The data were taken at the parameters given in figure 4.

The two text files contain the theoretically calculated data. 
"LinParaTheory50" contains the data calculated at 50% of the peak beam intensity.
"LinParaTheory75" contains the data calculated at 75% of the peak beam intensity.
The first column contains the detuning of the laser, the second column contains the in-phase component and the third column contains the quadrature component.

This data was presented in figure 4.

The directory "Linear Perpendicular" contains the D1 MTS data taken in the lin perpendicular lin configuration. 
The files in this directory are labeled and organised in the same manner as above as above.

The directory "Sigma Plus Sigma Minus" contains the D1 MTS data taken in the Sigma Plus Sigma Minus configuration. 
The files in this directory are labeled and organised in the same manner as above as above.


The directory "Sigma Plus Sigma Plus" contains the D1 MTS data taken in the Sigma Plus Sigma Plus configuration. 
The files in this directory are labeled and organised in the same manner as above as above.

All four of the previous directories were used in figure 5.
