Abstract

We experimentally prove two novel techniques which solve issues in photon-number squeezed state generation with nonlinear Kerr effect: one is with an Er-doped fiber laser source, and the other is with a normal dispersion fiber at 800 nm. In the former case a collinear balanced detection technique is applied to eliminate spontaneous amplified emission noise. In the latter, negatively chirped laser pulses are used to achieve better matching with a local oscillator pulse.
