Introduction The bound states of Group II-B (Cd, Zn and Hg) are rarely studied, having similar ns2 configuration as Alkaline earth elements. The resonance levels 1P1 lies in UV (Zn, Cd) and VUV (Hg), and ionization potentials are also very high ( 8-10 eV ) We have selected the 3P1 inter-combination level to approach the Rydberg states. The 3P1 level lie at lower energy as compare to 1P1 The fine structure energy difference is not very large therefore, the 3P0, 2 and 3D3 metastable state get populated due to collision energy transfer. Consequently, one can observe the Rydberg states possessing larger J-values.

Rydberg States The states of high principal quantum number n. Rydberg atom = Highly excited atom Ionization threshold Energy Rydberg Formula (in a.u)

Multi-step and multi Photon laser excitation The step-wise excitation is an excellent technique for the investigation of Rydberg States. Rydberg states can be investigated which can not be probe by one photon transition. Transitions that lie in the UV and VUV region can be approached using dye laser in visible and near UV region. The spectral resolution depends on the line-width of the dye laser. The step-wise excitation provides the maximum probability of exciting the atoms to the high lying states.
