Query: Rigorous theory of thin-vapor-layer linear optical properties: The case
  of quenching of atomic polarization upon collisions of atoms with dielectric
  walls   Hot alkali metal vapors enclosed in sub-micron spectroscopic cells provide an
ideal system for fundamental studies of the atom-wall and atom-light
interactions at nanoscale. Here, we propose a novel approach for calculating
the eigenmodes of a thin-vapor-layer beyond the limitations of the first-order
perturbation theory in optical density for the case of quenching of atomic
polarization upon collisions of atoms with dielectric walls. We show that
higher-order optical density corrections lead to a remarkable density-dependent
blue shift and deformation of the spectral line shapes of reflection,
transmission, and absorption. We also demonstrate that the eigenmodes of the
thin-vapor-layer can be calculated independently of the choice of optical
boundary conditions. This greatly extends the applicability of the constructed
theory for the development of miniature atomic sensors.
