摘要
We generate correlated photon pairs at 839 nm and 1392 nm from a single-mode photonic crystal fiber pumped in the normal dispersion regime. This compact, bright, tunable, single-mode source of pair-photons will have wide application in quantum communications. (C) 2005 Optical Society of America.
