Back-Scattering Properties of a Waveguide-Coupled Array of Atoms in the Strongly Non-Paraxial Regime

D. Reitz, C. Sayrin, B. Albrecht +4

We experimentally investigate the back-scattering properties of an array of atoms that is evanescently coupled to an optical nanofiber in the strongly non-paraxial regime. We obser…

Coherence properties of nanofiber-trapped cesium atoms

D. Reitz, C. Sayrin, R. Mitsch +2

We experimentally study the ground state coherence properties of cesium atoms in a nanofiber-based two-color dipole trap, localized 200 nm away from the fiber surface. Using microw…

Quantum dynamics of an atom orbiting around an optical nanofiber

Fam Le Kien, Kohzo Hakuta, Philipp Schneeweiss +1

We propose a novel platform for the investigation of quantum wave packet dynamics, offering a complementary approach to existing theoretical models and experimental systems. It rel…

A Nanofiber-Based Optical Conveyor Belt for Cold Atoms

Philipp Schneeweiss, Samuel T. Dawkins, Rudolf Mitsch +3

We demonstrate optical transport of cold cesium atoms over millimeter-scale distances along an optical nanofiber. The atoms are trapped in a one-dimensional optical lattice formed…

Nanofiber-Based Double-Helix Dipole Trap for Cold Neutral Atoms

D. Reitz, A. Rauschenbeutel

A double-helix optical trapping potential for cold atoms can be straightforwardly created inside the evanescent field of an optical nanofiber. It suffices to send three circularly…

Nanofiber-based optical trapping of cold neutral atoms

Eugen Vetsch, Samuel T. Dawkins, Rudolf Mitsch +3

We present experimental techniques and results related to the optimization and characterization of our nanofiber-based atom trap [Vetsch et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 104, 203603 (2010)…
