Optical fibre nanowires and microwires offer a variety of enabling properties, including large
evanescent fields, flexibility, configurability, high confinement, robustness and compactness …

Microwires and nanowires have been manufactured by using a wide range of bottom-up
techniques such as chemical or physical vapor deposition and top-down processes such as …

Tailoring the interactions between quantum emitters and single photons constitutes one of
the cornerstones of quantum optics. Coupling a quantum emitter to the band edge of a …

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 …

We study the collective radiative decay of a system of two two-level emitters coupled to a
one-dimensional waveguide in a regime where their separation is comparable to the …

This paper studies optical solitons with fractional temporal evolution in presence of
Hamiltonian perturbation terms. The three types of nonlinearity are Kerr law, parabolic law …

Based on a formalism that describes atom-light interactions in terms of the classical
electromagnetic Green's function, we study the optical response of atoms and other quantum …

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 …

Propulsive effects of light, which often remain unnoticed in our daily-life experience, manifest
themselves on spatial scales ranging from subatomic to astronomical. Light-mediated forces …
