Directional spontaneous emission and lateral Casimir-Polder force on an atom close to a nanofiber
Stefan Scheel, Stefan Yoshi Buhmann, Christoph Clausen +1
We study the spontaneous emission of an excited atom close to an optical nanofiber and the resulting scattering forces. For a suitably chosen orientation of the atomic dipole, the…
Optical diode based on the chirality of guided photons
C. Sayrin, C. Junge, R. Mitsch +5
Photons are nonchiral particles: their handedness can be both left and right. However, when light is transversely confined, it can locally exhibit a transverse spin whose orientati…
Storage of fiber-guided light in a nanofiber-trapped ensemble of cold atoms
C. Sayrin, C. Clausen, B. Albrecht +2
Tapered optical fibers with a nanofiber waist are versatile tools for interfacing light and matter. In this context, laser-cooled atoms trapped in the evanescent field surrounding…
