Micro-/nanofibers (MNFs) are optical fibers with diameters close to or below the wavelength
of the guided light. These tiny fibers can offer engineerable waveguiding properties …

Micro/nanofibres (MNFs) are optical fibres with diameters close to or below the vacuum
wavelength of visible or near-infrared light. Due to its wavelength-or sub-wavelength scale …

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 …

We demonstrate a method for efficient coupling of guided light from a single-mode optical
fiber to nanophotonic devices. Our approach makes use of single-sided conical tapered …

Recent advances in the coherent control of single quanta of light, photons, is a topic of prime
interest, and is discussed under the banner of quantum photonics. In the last decade, the …

We demonstrate an all-fiber cavity quantum electrodynamics system with a trapped single
atom in the strong coupling regime. We use a nanofiber Fabry-Perot cavity, that is, an optical …

We demonstrate trapping of a single Rb 85 atom at a distance of about 200 nm from the
surface of a whispering-gallery-mode bottle microresonator. The atom is trapped in an …

Many photonic quantum information processing applications would benefit from a high
brightness, fiber-coupled source of triggered single photons. Here, we present a fiber …

The development of optical nanofibers (ONFs) and the study and control of their optical
properties when coupling atoms to their electromagnetic modes has opened new …

As miniature fibre-optic platforms, micro/nanofibres (MNFs) taper-drawn from silica fibres
have been widely studied for applications from optical sensing, nonlinear optics to …
