    Design of a mode converter for efficient light-atom coupling in free space

    Full text link
    In this article, we describe how to develop a mode converter that transforms a plane electromagnetic wave into an inward moving dipole wave. The latter one is intended to bring a single atom or ion from its ground state to its excited state by absorption of a single photon wave packet with near-100% efficiency.Comment: RevTex4, 3 figures, revised version, accepted for publication at Appl.
