"Miniature, fiber-based Fabry-Perot cavities (FFPs) are enabling novel experiments in cavity quantum electrodynamics, with cold atoms as well as with solid-state emitters. We have used such an FFP cavity to create an entangled state in a small ensemble of about 20 atoms, extracted from a BEC on an atom chip. We also use the cavity to measure the Husimi distribution of this entangled multi-atom state. In will also describe a new experiment where an FFP cavity is used to prepare a Bose-Einstein condensate of exciton polaritons in a semiconductor quantum well.
