Amplitude squeezed fiber Bragg grating solitons
Abstract
Description
Quantum fluctuations of optical fiber Bragg grating solitons are investigated numerically by the back-propagation method. It is found for the first time that the bandgap effects of the grating act as a nonlinear filter and cause the soliton to be amplitude squeezed. The squeezing ratio saturates after a certain grating length and the fundamental Bragg soliton produces the optimal squeezing ratio.
