Plasmon-enhanced polarized single photon source directly coupled to an optical fiber
Masakazu Sugawara, Yining Xuan, Yasuyoshi Mitsumori +2
A bright source of fiber-coupled, polarized single photons is an essential component of any realistic quantum network based on today's existing fiber infrastructure. Here, we devel…
Optically induced sieve effect for nanoparticles near a nanofiber taper
Mark Sadgrove, Takaaki Yoshino, Masakazu Sugawara +2
We demonstrate size selective optical trapping and transport for nanoparticles near an optical nanofiber taper. Using a two-wavelength, counter-propagating mode configuration, we s…
Optical detection of nano-particle characteristics using coupling to a nano-waveguide
Masakazu Sugawara, Yasuyoshi Mitsumori, Keiichi Edamatsu +1
Recently, much research concerning the combination of nano-scale waveguides with nano-crystals and other nano-particles has been reported, because of possible applications in the f…
Optical transport of sub-micron lipid vesicles along an optical nanofibre
Takaaki Yoshino, Daichi Yamaura, Maki Komiya +6
Enhanced manipulation and analysis of bio-particles using light confined in nano-scale dielectric structures has proceeded apace in the last several years. Small mode volumes, alon…
Demonstration of displacement sensing of a mg-scale pendulum for mm- and mg- scale gravity measurements
Nobuyuki Matsumoto, Masakazu Sugawara, Seiya Suzuki +6
Gravity generated by large masses has been observed using a variety of probes from atomic interferometers to torsional balances. However, gravitational coupling between small masse…
