Interaction of two Rydberg atoms in the vicinity of an optical nanofibre
New Journal of Physics, 2023 We consider two rubidium atoms, prepared in the same S or P Rydberg states, near an optical nanofibre, and we determine their van der Waals interaction potential as a function of their separation along the nanofibre axis, their distance to the nanofibre ...

Micro/Nanofibre Optical Sensors: Challenges and Prospects
Sensors, 2018 Micro/nanofibres (MNFs) are optical fibres with diameters close to or below the vacuum wavelength of visible or near-infrared light. Due to its wavelength- or sub-wavelength scale diameter and relatively large index contrast between the core and cladding,
