Velocity selection for ultracold atoms using bimodal mazer action: Effects of detuning

Abstract In this paper, we discuss the effects of detuning on the velocity selection for ultracold three-level atoms in Λ configuration using mazer action. We find sharp resonances in the transmission probability with respect to the detuning. Our results show that the velocity selection of ultracold atoms can easily be tuned and enhanced using off-resonant field in a bimodal cavity.
