| dc.description.abstract | In this thesis, we demonstrate the novel technique of loading cold ⁸⁷Rb into a red-detuned optical dipole trap within a hollow core photonic fiber. This confines the atoms to 6 microns in two dimensions. We initially cooled the Rubidium in a magneto-optical trap. The great confinement of the Rubidium allows for increased optical depths per atom and therefore increased interaction rates with probing light. | en_US |
