Improving Polarisation Squeezing In Sagnac Interferometer Configuration
Using Photonic Crystal Fibre
   [PDF]

Morgan J. Tacey, Joel F. Corney
The greater confinement of light that is possible in photonic crystal fibres leads to a greater effective nonlin- earity, which promises to yield greater quantum squeezing than is possible in standard optical fibre. However, experimental work to date has not achieved improvements over standard fibre. We present a comprehensive numerical investigation of polarisation squeezing in photonic crystal fibre in a Sagnac configuration. By including loss, a non-instantaneous Raman response, excess phase-noise, second- and third-order dispersion and self-steepening, the simulations are able to identify the physical factors that limit current photonic crystal fibre squeezing experiments.
