Autler-Townes splitting via frequency upconversion at ultra-low power levels in cold Rb atoms using an optical nanofiber
Ravi Kumar, Vandna Gokhroo, Kieran Deasy +1
The tight confinement of the evanescent light field around the waist of an optical nanofiber makes it a suitable tool for studying nonlinear optics in atomic media. Here, we use an…
Interaction of laser-cooled Rb atoms with higher order modes of an optical nanofiber
Ravi Kumar, Vandna Gokhroo, Aili Maimaiti +4
Optical nanofibres are used to confine light to subwavelength regions and are very promising tools for the development of optical fibre-based quantum networks using cold, neutral a…
Spectroscopy, Manipulation and Trapping of Neutral Atoms, Molecules, and Other Particles using Optical Nanofibers: A Review
Michael J. Morrissey, Kieran Deasy, Mary Frawley +5
The use of tapered optical fibers, i.e., optical nanofibers, for spectroscopy and the detection of small numbers of particles, such as neutral atoms or molecules, has been gaining…
Observation of Zeeman shift in the rubidium D2 line using an optical nanofiber in vapor
Amy Watkins, Vibhuti Bhushan Tiwari, Jonathan M. Ward +1
We report on the observation of a Zeeman shift (order of 100 MHz) of the Doppler-broadened D2 transition of both 85Rb and 87Rb isotopes via transmission through a tapered optical n…
Tapered optical fibers as tools for probing magneto-optical trap characteristics
M. J. Morrissey, K. Deasy, Y. Wu +2
We present a novel technique for measuring the characteristics of a magneto-optical trap for cold atoms by monitoring the spontaneous emission from trapped atoms coupled into the g…
Controlled Creation of Spatial Superposition States for Single Atoms
K. Deasy, Th. Busch, Y. Niu +3
We present a method for the controlled and robust generation of spatial superposition states of single atoms in micro-traps. Using a counter-intuitive positioning sequence for the…
