Abstract
We demonstrated a new type of Doppler free spectroscopy by using optical heterodyne detection of the backward-scattered light from Rb atoms velocity-selected by a single-mode diode laser. The principle is based on the Doppler-shifted backward light scattering due to the number density inhomogeneity of velocity-selected atoms.
