TL;DR: In this paper, the first time such "entanglement distillation" has been achieved for states of light that are entangled in continuous variables, which should help to increase the distance over which quantum information can be distributed.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used an asymmetric fiber-optic Sagnac interferometer to generate short light pulses using the Kerr nonlinearity of the fiber and exploited it to produce independent amplitude squeezed pulses.

TL;DR: New experiments that test quantum dynamical predictions of polarization squeezing for ultrashort photonic pulses in a birefringent fiber, including all relevant dissipative effects, and identify the physical limits to quantum noise reduction in optical fibers.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigate polarization squeezing of ultrashort pulses in optical fiber, over a wide range of input energies and fiber lengths, and compare experimental data and quantum dynamical simulations to find good quantitative agreement.

TL;DR: The measured polarization squeezing as a function of optical pulse energy, which spans a wide range from 3.5-178.8 pJ, shows a very good agreement with the quantum simulations, and for the first time the proof experimentally that Raman effects limit and reduce squeezing at high pulse energy is seen.
