Investigation of a ${}^{85}$Rb Dark Magneto-Optical Trap using an Optical Nanofibre

L. Russell, R. Kumar, V. B. Tiwari +1

We report here measurements on a dark magneto-optical trap (DMOT) of ${}^{85}$Rb atoms using an optical nanofibre (ONF) with a waist of $\sim$~1 $\mu$m. The DMOT is created using a dou…
