Supplemental Material : Demonstration of a state - insensitive , compensated nanofiber trap
The tapered SiO2 nanofiber for the trap [1] is drawn from a conventional optical fiber in a hydrogen-oxygen flame [2–4]. Fig. SM1 shows the radius r(z) as a function of axial coordinate z from SEM measurements for a set of 8 fiber tapers. The central region ∆z yields an average radius r(z) = 215 ± 10 nm for −3 < z < 3 mm, as shown in (b). The red curve is a theoretical calculation for r(z) [2] ...
متن کاملDemonstration of a state-insensitive, compensated nanofiber trap.
We report the experimental realization of an optical trap that localizes single Cs atoms ≃215 nm from the surface of a dielectric nanofiber. By operating at magic wavelengths for pairs of counterpropagating red- and blue-detuned trapping beams, differential scalar light shifts are eliminated, and vector shifts are suppressed by ≈250. We thereby measure an absorption linewidth Γ/2π=5.7±0.1 MHz...
متن کاملA state-insensitive, compensated nanofiber trap
Laser trapping and interfacing of laser-cooled atoms in an optical fiber network is an important tool for quantum information science. Following the pioneering work of Balykin et al (2004 Phys. Rev. A 70 011401) and Vetsch et al (2010 Phys. Rev. Lett. 104 203603), we propose a robust method for trapping single cesium atoms with a two-color state-insensitive evanescent wave around a dielectric n...

متن کاملDemonstration of a memory for tightly guided light in an optical nanofiber.
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 optical nanofiber with a cold atomic ensemble, electromagnetically induced transparency is observed and light pulses at the single-photon level are stored in and retrieved from the atomic medium. The decay of efficiency wit...
