Iodine absorption cells quality evaluation

This paper is oriented towards comparison of measurement methods for iodine absorption cells quality evaluation. Traditionally used method of laser induced fluorescence with evaluation of Stern-Volmer coefficients and method of measurement of absolute frequency shifts of hyperfine spectras have several limitations and sensitivity limits. Due to this reason an alternative technique of hyperfine spectra linewidth measurement is proposed and summarization of all methods advantages and drawbacks are described.
