Abstract

A method for measuring the probability of excitation quenching of atoms on the surface of transparent dielectrics using data on the dependence of the luminescence intensity of atom in an ultrashort cell on the distance between its windows is suggested. Two possibilities of performing the measurements based on the luminescence recording are considered: from the volume at the atomic transition frequency and from the near-wall region in the range of distant wings of atomic lines.
