2 NUCLEAR SPINS HAVE LONG RELAXATION TIMES Ground state He3 has a purely nuclear spin ½ Nuclear magnetic moments are small Weak magnetic couplings dipole-dipole interaction contributes for T s (1mbar) Spin 1/2 No electric quadrupole moment coupling In practice T 1 relaxation can reach 5 days in cesium-cotated cells and 14 days in sol-gel coated cells T 2 is usually limited by magnetic field inhomogeneity
3 Examples of Relaxation times in 3 He T 1 =344 h T 2 =1.33 h Ming F. Hsu et al. Appl. Phys. Lett. (2000) Sol-gel coated glass cells 0.Moreau et al. J.Phys III (1997) Magnetometer with polarized 3 He

Phys. Rev. A (2004)
12 SQUEEZING TRANSFER TO GROUND STATE ATOMS Ω 3 A The metastable coherence S 12 evolves at the frequency (ω 1 ω 2 ) Ω Exchange collisions give a linear coupling beween S 12 and I Resonant coupling condition : E E = (ω 1 ω 2 ) Resonant coupling in both metastable and ground state is Possible in a magnetic field such that the Zeemann effect in the metastable compensates the light shift of level 1
