Towards nonlinear optics with cold Rydberg atoms inside a hollow core fiber

We present an experimental setup for studying strongly nonlinear light-matter interactions using cold atoms inside a hollow core fiber. A Rydberg EIT process can potentially be used to generate strong and tunable effective photon-photon interactions.

Rydberg excitation of cold atoms inside a hollow-core fiber

Maria Langbecker, Mohammad Noaman, Niels Kjærgaard +2 more

We report on a versatile, highly controllable hybrid cold Rydberg atom fiber interface, based on laser cooled atoms transported into a hollow-core kagome crystal fiber. Our experiments demonstrate the feasibility of exciting cold Rydberg atoms inside a hollow-core fiber and we study the influence of the fiber on Rydberg electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) signals. Using a temporally resolved detection method to distinguish between excitation and loss, we observe two different regimes of the Rydberg excitations: one EIT regime and one regime dominated by atom loss. These results are a substantial advancement towards future use of our system for quantum simulation or information.

Micro-lensing-induced line shapes in a single-mode cold-atom–hollow-core-fiber interface

Mohammad Noaman, Maria Langbecker, Patrick Windpassinger

We report on the observation of strong transmission line shape alterations in a cold-atom-hollow-core-fiber interface. We show that this can lead to a significant overestimation of the assigned resonant optical depth for high atom densities. By modeling light beam propagation in an inhomogeneous dispersive medium, we attribute the observations to micro lensing in the atomic ensemble in combination with the mode selection of the atom-fiber interface. The approach is confirmed by studies of Rydberg electromagnetically induced transparency line shapes.
