For nonzero Rabi detuning,The sketch starts at zero and oscillates between zero and , with period when the coupling is nonzero. Relative to resonance, the oscillations have a smaller maximum and a shorter period at fixed coupling. The sign of the Rabi detuning changes the amplitudes' phases but leaves this transition probability unchanged. For , its maximum is approximately , so population transfer is strongly suppressed. The plotted detuned example has , giving maximum .
