TL;DR: This work experimentally studies the ground state coherence properties of cesium atoms in a nanofiber-based two-color dipole trap and finds that, for the experimental parameters, T(2)(*) and T( 2)(') are limited by the finite initial temperature of the atomic ensemble and the heating rate, respectively.

TL;DR: In this article, a two-color evanescent field surrounding the optical nanofiber was used to measure the number of trapped atoms per trapping site and showed that loading the trapped atoms from a magneto-optical trap leads to sub-Doppler temperatures of the trapped atomic ensemble and yields a sub-Poissonian distribution.

TL;DR: In this article, a double-helix optical trapping potential for cold atoms can be created inside the evanescent field of an optical nanofiber by sending three circularly polarized light fields through the optical fiber; two counter-propagating and far red-detuned with respect to the atomic transition, and the third far blue -detuned.

TL;DR: In this paper, an experimental investigation of the properties of light backscattered by an array of Cs atoms trapped by an evanescent field from a nanofiber was conducted.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a quantum wave-packet model based on laser-cooled neutral atoms which orbit around an optical nanofiber in an optical potential produced by a red-detuned guided light field.
