21. In the case that the transition between |m〉 and |g〉 is dipole forbidden, the coupling has to be provided by a pair of Raman lasers via an additional off-resonant intermediate molecular level. Then the Rabi frequency and detuning should be regarded as the effective two-photon Raman coupling strength and detuning.
