چکیده

We report on an experimental study of recoil-induced resonances as a method of velocimetry for cold atomic samples. We present a refined experimental method that greatly improves the sensitivity of the measurement over previous experiments. Using frequency-modulation (FM) spectroscopy techniques we achieve a sensitivity that approaches the shot noise limit. In addition, we present a novel approach to deriving the line shape of the observed signal, based on the concept of quantum transport and tunnelling in motional Bloch bands.

A theory of pump-probe spectroscopy is developed in which optical fields drive two-photon Raman transitions between ground states of an ensemble of three-level Λ atoms. Effects related to the recoil the atoms undergo as a result of their interactions with the fields are fully accounted for in this theory. The linear absorption coefficient of a weak probe field in the presence of two pump fields...
