In this project, we have developed an optical tweezer based single atom trap on a photonic crystal (PhC) nanofiber cavity. Fabrication of high quality PhC cavities on nanofibers was demonstrated. The cavities were designed for efficient interfacing of trapped single atoms to nanofiber guided modes. The interference between the cavity modes leading to unique spectral features was investigated. Photo-thermal stabilization of the PhC nanofiber cavities under ultra-high vacuum conditions was achieved. It was demonstrated that single atoms can be successfully trapped on the nanofiber cavity and can be observed in real-time through the fiber guided modes. This enables deterministic preparation of single atom events for quantum photonics applications on an all-fiber platform.
