We study the coupling between the fundamental guided modes of two identical parallel nanofibers analytically and numerically. We calculate the coefficients of directional coupling, butt coupling, and mode energy changes as functions of the fiber radius, the light wavelength, and the fiber separation distance. We show that, due to the symmetry of the system, a mode of a nanofiber with the principal quasilinear polarization aligned along the radial or tangential axis is coupled only to the mode with the same corresponding principal polarization of the other nanofiber. We find that the effects of the butt coupling and the mode energy changes on the power transfer are significant when the fiber radius is small, the light wavelength is large, or the fiber separation distance is small. We show that the power transfer coefficient may achieve a local maximum or become zero when the fiber radius, the light wavelength, or the fiber separation distance varies indicating the system could be used in metrology for distance or wavelength measurements.

We study the cross-sectional profiles and spatial distributions of the fields in guided normal modes of two coupled parallel optical nanofibers. We show that the distributions of the components of the field in a guided normal mode of two identical na
nofibers are either symmetric or antisymmetric with respect to the radial principal axis and the tangential principal axis in the cross-sectional plane of the fibers. The symmetry of the magnetic field components with respect to the principal axes is opposite to that of the electric field components. We show that, in the case of even $mathcal{E}_z$-cosine modes, the electric intensity distribution is dominant in the area between the fibers, with a saddle point at the two-fiber center. Meanwhile, in the case of odd $mathcal{E}_z$-sine modes, the electric intensity distribution at the two-fiber center attains a local minimum of exactly zero. We find that the differences between the results of the coupled mode theory and the exact mode theory are large when the fiber separation distance is small and either the fiber radius is small or the light wavelength is large. We show that, in the case where the two nanofibers are not identical, the intensity distribution is symmetric about the radial principal axis and asymmetric about the tangential principal axis.
We study the trapping of a ground-state cesium atom in a small region around the midpoint between two coupled identical parallel optical nanofibers. We suggest to use a blue-detuned guided light field in the odd $mathcal{E}_z$-sine array mode to prod
uce an optical potential with a local minimum of exact zero at the midpoint between the nanofibers. We find that the effects of the van der Waals potential on the total trapping potential around the minimum point are not significant when the fiber separation distance and the power of the guided light field are large. For appropriate realistic parameters, a net trapping potential with a significant depth of about 1 mK, a large coherence time of several seconds, and a large recoil-heating-limited trap lifetime of several hours can be obtained. We investigate the dependencies of the trapping potential on the power of the guided light field, the fiber radius, the wavelength of light, and the fiber separation distance.
We derive a general theory of linear coupling and Kerr nonlinear coupling between modes of dielectric optical resonators from first principles. The treatment is not specific to a particular geometry or choice of mode basis, and can therefore be used
as a foundation for describing any phenomenon resulting from any combination of linear coupling, scattering and Kerr nonlinearity, such as bending and surface roughness losses, geometric backscattering, self- and cross-phase modulation, four-wave mixing, third-harmonic generation and Kerr frequency comb generation. The theory is then applied to a translationally symmetric waveguide in order to calculate the evanescent coupling strength to the modes of a microresonator placed nearby, as well as the Kerr self- and cross-phase modulation terms between the modes of the resonator. This is then used to derive a dimensionless equation describing the symmetry-breaking dynamics of two counterpropagating modes of a loop resonator and prove that cross-phase modulation is exactly twice as strong as self-phase modulation only in the case that the two counterpropagating modes are otherwise identical.
We make a detailed theoretical description of the two-dimensional nature of a dc-SQUID, analyzing the coupling between its two orthogonal phase oscillation modes. While it has been shown that the mode defined as longitudinal can be initialized, manip
ulated and measured, so as to encode a quantum bit of information, the mode defined as transverse is usually repelled at high frequency and does not interfere in the dynamics. We show that, using typical parameters of existing devices, the transverse mode energy can be made of the order of the longitudinal one. In this regime, we can observe a strong coupling between these modes, described by an Hamiltonian providing a wide range of interesting effects, such as conditional quantum operations and entanglement. This coupling also creates an atomic-like structure for the combined two mode states, with a V-like scheme.
We review our recent progress in the production and characterization of tapered optical fibers with a sub-wavelength diameter waist. Such fibers exhibit a pronounced evanescent field and are therefore a useful tool for highly sensitive evanescent wav
e spectroscopy of adsorbates on the fiber waist or of the medium surrounding. We use a carefully designed flame pulling process that allows us to realize preset fiber diameter profiles. In order to determine the waist diameter and to verify the fiber profile, we employ scanning electron microscope measurements and a novel accurate in situ optical method based on harmonic generation. We use our fibers for linear and non-linear absorption and fluorescence spectroscopy of surface-adsorbed organic molecules and investigate their agglomeration dynamics. Furthermore, we apply our spectroscopic method to quantum dots on the surface of the fiber waist and to caesium vapor surrounding the fiber. Finally, towards dispersive measurements, we present our first results on building and testing a single-fiber bi-modal interferometer.
