Optical nanofiber temperature monitoring via double heterodyne detection

Tapered optical fibers (nanofibers) whose diameters are smaller than the optical wavelength are very fragile and can be easily destroyed if excessively heated by energy dissipated from the transmitted light. We present a technique for monitoring the nanofiber temperature using two-stage heterodyne d...
