In this paper, benzene-core photonic crystal fibers (B-PCFs) with non-uniform air holes for the square lattice are studied by controlling the air-filling factor of the air holes in the first ring and increasing those up to a maximum for external holes. Commercial Mode Solutions software is used to study the influence of structural parameters on the nonlinear coefficient, dispersion, effective mode area, and attenuation. It can be seen that this design affects the linear and nonlinear properties at the same time. In other words, it has a crucial effect on either the near-zero flatness of dispersion or going up the nonlinearity and falling the loss of the B-PCFs. The above benefits make the optimized fibers suitable for supercontinuum (SC) generation applications. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, we compare dispersion characteristics of chloroform-core photonic crystal fibers (PCFs) with circular lattice and hexagonal lattice in the case of different air hole diameters. By varying lattice constant Ʌ and filling factor in the first ring d1/Ʌ, we can easily control chromatic dispersion and achieve three optimal structures for the circular lattice of fibers #CF1 (Ʌ = 1.0 µm, d1/Ʌ = 0.65), #CF2 (Ʌ = 1.0 µm, d1/Ʌ = 0.7), and #CF3 (Ʌ = 2.0 µm, d1/Ʌ = 0.3) and two optimal structures for the hexagonal lattice of fibers #HF1 (Ʌ = 1.0 µm, d1/Ʌ = 0.5), #HF2 (Ʌ = 2.0 µm, d1/Ʌ = 0.3). At the same structural parameter (Ʌ = 2.0 µm, d1/Ʌ = 0.3) and the corresponding pumping wavelength, the circular structure has a dispersion smaller by 5.598 ps/mn/km than the hexagonal lattice. #CF1 has all-normal dispersion with the peak of the dispersion curve asymptote to the zero-dispersion curve which is very suitable for coherent supercontinuum generation (SCG). The #HF1 structure has a near-zero flat anomalous dispersion in the wide wavelength range from 1.1 µm to 1.4 µm. Our results will be an important premise in choosing a PCF structure to study SCG.

• The influence of the laser width on the possibility of generation Bell states is considered. • Exact formulas determining complex probability amplitudes for the system were obtained. • Probabilities to the system exist in the Bell states are shown. • The parameter b 0 is an important parameter to play the controlling role position and value of probabilities the system. We research on a Kerr nonlinear coupler comprising two nonlinear oscillations linearly couple with each other. This coupler is pumped by external classical fields, which are supposed to be decomposed into two parts: a coherent part and a randomly fluctuating chaotic component (white noise). We can see that the quantum evolution of the pumped couplers is closed in a Hilbert space of two-qubit spanned by single-photon and vacuum states only. Hence, the pumped couplers can treat as a system of two-qubit. Analysis of time evolution of the quantum entanglement shows that maximally entangled states can be generated in the system and compare these results with that obtained previously by other authors.
