Abstract In this article, a low loss circular photonic crystal fiber (C-PCF) has been suggested as Terahertz (THz) waveguide. Both the core and cladding vicinity of the suggested PCF are constituted by circular-shaped air holes. The optical properties such as effective material loss, effective area, core power fraction and V-parameter have numerically been probed by utilizing full vectorial finite element method (FEM) with perfectly matched layers (FMLs) boundary condition. The reported PCF reveals low absorption loss and large effective area of 0.04 cm−1 and 2.80×10−07 m2 respectively at 1 THz operating frequency. In addition, the core power fraction of the fiber is about 50.83 % at the same activation frequency. The V-parameter shows that the proposed PCF acts as a single mode over 0.70 to 1.15 THz frequency. So, the reported PCF offers the best performance in long distance communication applications.

Abstract Heralded entanglement between distant quantum memories is the key resource for quantum networks. Based on quantum repeater protocols, these networks will facilitate efficient large-scale quantum communication and distributed quantum computing. However, despite vast efforts, long-distance fibre based network links have not been realized yet. Here we present results demonstrating heralded entanglement between two independent, remote single-atom quantum memories generated over fibre links with a total length up to 33 km. To overcome the attenuation losses in the long optical fibres of photons initially emitted by the Rubidium quantum memories, we employ polarization-preserving quantum frequency conversion to the low loss telecom band. The presented work represents a milestone towards the realization of efficient quantum network links.

To fully use optical fiber cable features such as low loss, small diameter, and light weight, cables are installed over the longest possible unit distance using pullers installed in intermediate manholes to distribute cable pulling force. An optical fiber cable pulling system has been developed that measures loading tension on the cable using tension sensors and automatically controls pulling speed so that tension is appropriate.

ABSTRACTFluoride glasses are being considered for use in long distance, mid-infrared transmitting optical fibers. The multi-phonon edge of these fibers is shifted to longer wavelengths compared to silica fibers. The intrinsic loss is therefore lower (< 0.01 dB/km) and occurs at about 2.5 microns. Applications for these fibers include ultra-low loss communication links, radiation resistant links, remoting of IR focal plane arrays and IR power delivery. In addition, this ultra low loss optical fiber may be used for fiber guided missiles with capability for distances longer than 500 km. Most of the interest however, has been focused on development of ultra long (thousands of kilometers), repeaterless communication links. Such repeaterless links may decrease system cost and cable weight, while increasing overall reliability and ease of repair compared to silicate optical fibers.

UHV AC transmission has a high transmission capacity, long distance, low loss, covers save etc. significant advantages, so it’s widely used in our country. But the placement of the UHV which was sent to select still major use projects empirical methods. This method lacks clarity and systematic. Meanwhile, it is difficult to adapt to complex changes in the overall demand for power grid. This paper developed a UHV AC placement selection method based on short-circuit current coordination. According to UHV grid and nearby 500kV grid short-circuit current coordination constraint, unreasonable impact point sent plan was excluded so that greatly unnecessary computational analysis was reduced. This can quickly determine the placement of reasonable UHV AC transmission project plan.
