Optical Nanofibers for Manipulating and Probing Single-Atom Fluorescence
K. P. Nayak, P. N. Melentiev, M. Morinaga +3
We demonstrate how optical nanofibers can be used to manipulate and probe single-atom fluorescence. We show that fluorescence photons from a very small number of atoms, average ato…

Spontaneous radiative decay of translational levels of an atom near a dielectric surface
Fam Le Kien, K. Hakuta
We study spontaneous radiative decay of translational levels of an atom in the vicinity of a semi-infinite dielectric. We systematically derive the microscopic dynamical equations…

Optical excitation spectrum of an atom in a surface-induced potential
Fam Le Kien, S. Dutta Gupta, K. Hakuta
We study the optical excitation spectrum of an atom in the vicinity of a dielectric surface. We calculate the rates of the total scattering and the scattering into the evanescent m…
