Control of squeezed light pulse spectrum in the Kerr medium with an inertial nonlinearity

Quantum Physics 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

The consistent quantum theory of self-phase modulation (SPM) and cross-phase modulation (XPM) for ultrashort light pulses (USP) in medium with electronic Kerr-nonlinearity are developed. The approach makes use of momentum operator of electrical field which takes account of the inertial behaviour of the nonlinearity. The spectrum of quantum fluctuations of squeezed-quadrature component as a function of response time of nonlinearity and values of nonlinear phase shifts due to the SPM and XPM effects, is investigated.
