Summary: | Techniques are provided for placing atoms inside an appropriate nanocavity for enhancing two-photon absorption and quantum information processing based on the Zeno effect. Techniques for fabricating suitable nanocavities include: 1) a short length of optical fiber polished on the ends with the ends coated to form suitable mirrors; 2) a continuous length of fiber with the equivalent of mirrors being formed within the fiber using Bragg gratings; 3) a single filament of glass (such as fused silica) being suspended between two mirrors (without any cladding) and surrounded by an atomic vapor, solid, or liquid; 4) a small glass sphere (such as fused silica) that has been melted on the end of an optical fiber; and 5) a small toroid (ring) of glass bent in a circle surrounded by suitable atoms. |
