Abstract
Gas-filled hollow optical fiber references based on the P(13) transition of the band of promise portability with moderate accuracy and stability. Previous realizations are corrected () by using proper modeling of a shift due to line-shape. To improve portability, a sealed photonic microcell is characterized on the P(23) transition with somewhat reduced accuracy and stability. Effects of the photonic crystal fiber, including surface modes, are explored. Both polarization-maintaining (PM) and non-PM 7-cell photonic bandgap fiber are shown to be unsuitable for kilohertz-level frequency references.
