A neodymium doped hollow optical fiber laser for applications in sensing and laser guided atoms

The development of a diode pumped capillary fiber laser is described. Its emission properties are changed by influencing the evanescent field. Besides its application as a sensor device, the usability of such a laser is illustrated for the example of guiding atoms on straight and curved paths.
