arc.calculations_atom_single.StarkMap.getPolarizability#
- StarkMap.getPolarizability(maxField=10000000000.0, showPlot=False, debugOutput=False, minStateContribution=0.0)[source]#
Returns the polarizability of the state (set during the initalization process).
Fits offset of the energy level of the state to \(\frac{1}{2} \alpha_0 E^2\), where \(E\) is the applied static electric field, and returns fitted value \(\alpha_0\)
- Parameters
maxField (
float, optional) – maximum field (in V/m) to be used for fitting the polarizability. By default, max field is very large, so it will use eigenvalues calculated in the whole range.showPlot (
bool, optional) – shows plot of calculated eigenValues of the given state (dots), and the fit (solid line) for extracting polarizabilitydebugOutput (
bool, optional) – if True prints additional information usefull for debuging. Set to false by default.
- Returns
scalar polarizability in units of MHz cm \(^2\) / V \(^2\)
- Return type
