Simple integrated single-atom detector.
We present a reliable and robust integrated fluorescence detector capable of detecting single atoms. The detector consists of a tapered lensed single-mode fiber for precise delivery of excitation light and a multimode fiber to collect the fluorescence. Both are mounted in lithographically defined SU-8 holding structures on an atom chip. 87Rb atoms propagating freely in a magnetic guide are dete...
متن کاملTerahertz sensing and imaging based on carbon nanotubes: frequency- selective detection and near-field imaging
The advantageous properties of terahertz (THz) waves permeability through objects opaque for visible light, the important energy spectrum in the meV range, etc. potentially enable various applications of sensing and imaging in this band. Lowdimensional electronic structures open up novel THz technologies, such as quantum cascade laser and THz time-domain spectroscopy. In this work, by employing...
متن کاملNear-field Raman Spectroscopy of Individual Single-walled Carbon Nanotubes
Near-field Raman spectroscopy with high spatial resolution is used to study singlewalled carbon nanotubes (SWNT) within dense samples. A sharp, laser irradiated metal tip acts as a near-field excitation source causing an enhanced Raman signal within close proximity of the tip. We present optical images of different Raman modes with a spatial resolution better than 15 nm. Local spectroscopy allo...
متن کاملAligned carbon nanotubes as polarization-sensitive, molecular near-field detectors.
Near-field scanning optical microscopes are widely used in imaging of subwavelength features in various material systems and nanostructures. For a variety of applications, polarization-sensitive near-field probes can provide valuable information on the nature and symmetry of the imaged nanoparticles and emitters. Conventional near-field optical microscopy lacks in-plane polarization sensitivity...
متن کاملTerahertz near-field microscopy based on a collection mode detector
We report on the development of a collection mode near-field probe for the terahertz spectral range. The near-field detector is based on an aperture type probe with dimensions of 30330 mm. The collection mode technique provides higher sensitivity and higher resolution than the similar illumination mode approach. Spatial resolution better than 40 mm is demonstrated for a broad spectrum of 300–60...
