Abstract: The method of transferring the frequency of an optically detected magnetic resonance both up and down by an arbitrary value is implemented in a single-beam optical pumping scheme by modulating the linearly polarized beam component. The possibility of observing the Hanle resonance in a magnetic field virtually zeroed upon transition to a rotating coordinate system is demonstrated. A model experiment was carried out, confirming the fundamental feasibility and effectiveness of the method.

Keywords: optically detectable magnetic resonance, optical resonance frequency transfer, Hanle effect, Bell-Bloom scheme, quantum magnetometer.
