Optical trapping and control of nanoparticles inside hollow core photonic crystal fibers — •David Grass, Julian Fesel, Nikolai Kiesel, and Markus Aspelmeyer — University of Vienna

Optically levitated nanospheres in ultra-high vacuum are a promising approach to high-Q optomechanical systems. To this end a reproducible and clean loading mechanism for nanoparticles with a diameter on the order of 100nm is required. Here we will present the current status of such a mechanism utilizing hollow core photonic crystal fibers [1]. They allow controlled transport and promise deterministic loading of levitated nanoparticles into an ultra-high vacuum environment.
