1306.0166 (M. Sadgrove et al.)

Photonic crystal nanofiber using an external grating    [PDF]

M. Sadgrove, R. Yalla, K. P. Nayak, K. Hakuta
We implement a photonic crystal nanofiber device by reversibly combining an optical nanofiber and a nanofabricated grating. Using the finite-difference time-domain method, we design the system for minimal optical loss while tailoring the resonant wavelength and bandwidth of the device. Experimentally we demonstrate that the combined system shows a strong photonic stop-band in good agreement with numerical predictions. The resulting device may be used to realize strong light-matter coupling near to the nanofiber surface.
