Our approach is based on the phenomenon of photon-number squeezing of soliton noise after the soliton has propagated through a nonlinear optical fiber. Applications of this component in optical networks for quantum computation and quantum cryptography are discussed.12 pages, 2 figures; submitted to Journal of Optics BQuantum PhysicsGeneration and manipulation of squeezed states of light in optical networks for quantum communication and computationtext
