Evanescent-light guiding of atoms through hollow optical fiber for optically controlled atomic deposition

Haruhiko Ito; K. Sakaki; Motoichi Ohtsu; Wonho Jhe

This work demonstrates that the technique of guiding atoms through hollow optical fiber escorted by evanescent light is useful as a novel scheme of optical atom deposition. To show the feasibility of fabricating micron-sized structures with nanometric depth on a substrate, we measure the spatial distribution of the guided atom flux with a hot-wire detector. Moreover, precise control of the deposition rate is illustrated with a 1.4-μm-hollow fiber via photoionization spectroscopy. The ratio of the guided atom flux relative to the background transmission is enhanced up to 80-fold with a slightly tilted hollow fiber.

Evanescent-light induced atom-guidance using a hollow optical fiber with light coupled sideways

Haruhiko Ito; K. Sakaki; Wonho Jhe; Motoichi Ohtsu

Abstract This work presents a new way useful for guiding of cold atoms with a hollow optical fiber escorted by blue-detuned evanescent light. To induce an atomic mirror-tunnel, we couple a guide-laser beam via total internal reflection from the side to the core of a hollow fiber with a facet ground at an angle of 45°. The guiding of Rb atoms is demonstrated with complementary detection by means of surface-ionization and two-step photoionization. The efficiency of the lateral light-coupling is also estimated from both experiment and numerical analysis.

Near-field optical guidance and manipulation of atoms

Haruhiko Ito; K. Otake; Motoichi Ohtsu

We describe guiding of neutral atoms through a hollow optical fiber with a micron-sized hollow core. Two-step photoionization experiment shows the frequency dispersion properties of the dipole interaction between an atom and an optical near field. These characteristics are advantageous to species- and state-selective manipulation of atoms. Then we discus a new scheme of atom deposition by means of the guiding technique, including a numerical simulation. We also present two methods for controlling atomic motion using a sharped optical fiber with a nanometric optical n ear field, i.e., atom deflection and atom trap. Deflection angle and trap potential are estimated based on a near-field intensity distribution derived from a Yukawa-type screened potential. The manipulation techniques are useful for precise control of atoms with a spatial accuracy beyond diffraction limit, which will lead to atomic-scale crystal growth.

Atom guidance using evanescent waves in small hollow optical fibers and its applications

Haruhiko Ito; K. Sakaki; Wonho Jhe; Motoichi Ohtsu

We report the recent progress of the experiments on guiding atoms by evanescent waves in micron-sized hollow optical fibers. The lateral manipulation accuracy is enhanced up to 1 micron with a large increase of more than 50 times on the guided atom flux. Moreover, the frequency tuning enables the fine control of the guided flux with a numerical accuracy of 10 atom/s. The atom-guidance scheme is applied to in-line isotope separation on rubidium atoms and measurement of the cavity quantum electrodynamic effect in a cylindrical dielectric. In addition, the feasibility of fabricating micron-sized structures with nanometric depth is discussed including the manipulation of a small number of laser-cooled atoms.
