We demonstrate a fiber-integrated Fabry-Pérot cavity formed by attaching pair of dielectric metasurfaces to the ends hollow-core photonic-crystal fiber segment. The consist perforated membranes designed as slabs that act planar mirrors but can potentially allow injection gases through their holes into hollow core fiber. have so far observed cavities with finesse ~11 and Q factors ~$4.5 \times 10^5$, much higher values should be achievable improved fabrication procedures. expect this device...
The harmonic oscillator is a foundational concept in both theoretical and experimental quantum mechanics. Here, we demonstrate oscillators semiconductor platform by faithfully implementing continuously graded alloy wells. Unlike current technology, this technique avoids interfaces that can hamper the system allows for production of multiwell stacks several micrometers thick. experimentally measured oscillations are at 3 THz two structures containing 18 54 parabolic Absorption room...

We have developed an atom trap trace analysis (ATTA) system to measure Kr in Xe at the part per trillion (ppt) level, a prerequisite for sensitivity achievable with liquid xenon dark matter detectors beyond current generation. Since Ar and similar laser cooling wavelengths, apparatus has been tested avoid contamination prior measuring samples. A radio-frequency plasma discharge generates beam of metastable atoms which is optically collimated, slowed, trapped using standard magneto-optical...
Abstract Single-mode hollow-core waveguides loaded with atomic ensembles offer an excellent platform for light–matter interactions and nonlinear optics at low photon levels. We review discuss possible approaches incorporating mirrors, cavities, Bragg gratings into these without obstructing their hollow cores. With additional features controlling the light propagation in waveguides, one could potentially achieve optical nonlinearities controllable by single photons systems small footprints...
We propose integrating Fabry-Perot cavity into hollow-core waveguides with photonic-crystal slabs acting as dielectric metasurfaces forming the mirrors. predict achieving strong-coupling cQED regime and present preliminary fabrication results.
We study the spontaneous Raman emission in an ensemble of laser-cooled three-level Λ-type atoms confined inside a hollow-core photonic-bandgap fiber using novel approach to observe process. Instead detecting emitted light, we measure number ground state as function pump time, which eliminates need suppress photons with high-resolution filter. describe how this measurement can be used detect superradiant from atomic ensembles and estimate required superradiance clouds fiber.

Our goal is to study quantum optical phenomena in a strong nonlinear system. For this purpose, we create hollow-core photonic-crystal (HCPC) fiber-based platform that confines photons and atomic ensembles together. This enables light-matter interactions which are crucial for implementing nonlinearities at single-photon levels [1]. We use an dipole trap cesium's magic wavelength guide laser cooled cesium atoms into inside the fiber core. approach will allow us perform experiments with...

In this system, atom-photon interaction probability is range 0.5% optical depths exceeding 100 can be achieved. discuss outlooks for photon storage nonlinear optics at low light levels, such as cross-phase modulation single-photon wavelength conversion, system.
We study the effects of dipole trap wavelength and power on number laser-cooled atoms loaded into a hollow-core optical fiber to optimize trade-oft's between observed loss mechanisms.
