Demonstration of a memory for tightly guided light in an optical nanofiber
B. Gouraud, D. Maxein, A. Nicolas +2
We report the experimental observation of slow-light and coherent storage in a setting where light is tightly confined in the transverse directions. By interfacing a tapered optica…
Quantum state tomography of orbital angular momentum photonics qubits via a projection-based technique
Adrien Nicolas, Lucile Veissier, Elisabeth Giacobino +2
While measuring the orbital angular momentum state of bright light beams can be performed using imaging techniques, a full characterization at the single-photon level is challengin…
Fiber-pigtailed optical tweezer for single-atom trapping and single-photon generation
Sébastien Garcia, Dominik Maxein, Leander Hohmann +2
We demonstrate a miniature, fiber-coupled optical tweezer to trap a single atom. The same fiber is used to trap a single atom and to read out its fluorescence. To obtain a low back…
A quantum memory for orbital angular momentum photonic qubits
A. Nicolas, L. Veissier, L. Giner +3
Among the optical degrees of freedom, the orbital angular momentum of light provides unique properties, including mechanical torque action with applications for light manipulation,…
A reversible optical memory for twisted photons
L. Veissier, A. Nicolas, L. Giner +4
We report on an experiment in which orbital angular momentum of light is mapped at the single-photon level into and out of a cold atomic ensemble. Based on the dynamic electromagne…
