Probing surface charge densities on optical fibers with a trapped ion

We describe a novel method to measure the surface charge densities on optical fibers placed in the vicinity of a trapped ion, where the ion itself acts as the probe. Surface charges distort the trapping potential, and when the fibers are displaced, the ion’s equilibrium position and secular motional...
