Abstract Principles and applications are described for a form of Doppler-free optical double resonance spectroscopy which uses amplitude modulation sidebands (v L ±v) imposed on a single laser frequency (v L ). The sidebands are generated by passing the carrier radiationv L through an electro-optic modulator, driven at a radiofrequency ν, which enables the intensity and polarization characteristics of the emerging radiation to be varied for enhancement of selected double-resonance processes. The technique has been applied to infrared-infrared double-resonance studies of the Stark effects of a variety of molecules—13CH3F,12CH3F, PH3,15NH3, GeH4, SiH4, and CH3D—for which physical results are presented and discussed. These results include determination of extremely small electric dipole moments (10−3–10−5 debye) for GeH4 and CH3D and, for the dipole moment of PH3, a vibrational state dependence which is extremely small (Δμ=0.0028(5) debye for ∣Δv 2∣=1) and a rotational state dependence which is of an unexpected sign. The spectra recorded in some cases display unusual polarization and optical saturation effects which deviate markedly from the predictions of a simple three-wave polarization theory.
