Abstract
Population ratios between excited states are measured to build the excited state Faraday anomalous
dispersion optical filter (ESFADOF). We calculate these values between the excited states according to the
spontaneous transition probabilities using rate equations and the measured intensities of fluorescence
spectral lines of He atoms in an electrodeless discharge lamp in the visible spectral region from 350 to 730
nm. The electrodeless discharge lamp with populations in excited states can be used to realize the frequency
stabilization reference of the laser frequency standard. This lamp can also build ESFADOFs for submarine
communication application in the blue-green wavelength to simplify the system without the use of a pump laser.
