Hollow core photonic band-gap fibres can guide light in the inner hollow core, surrounded by a microstructure that creates a photonic band-gap. If the hollow core is filled with gaseous or liquid media, a collimated beam with a diameter of only a few micrometers could be guided over many meters inside the media. This is ideal for achieving self-induced transparency (SIT) solitons over large distances.

We developed a method for filling Rb into hollow core fibres. We plan to evaporate the Rb inside the fiber and exploit the nonlinearity inherent in detuned SIT for the generation of squeezed states.
