Dataset for Low-loss, compact, fibre-integrated cell for quantum memories
This dataset includes data that are used to characterise a low-loss, fibre integrated cell. That is a segment of hollow core fibre connected to single mode fibre on both ends by means of a low-loss, graded index fibre interconnection. We have included data that shows loss spectra for this device, as well as characterising the loss due to coupling into higher order modes of the fibre by means of allowing the fibre to droop under its own weight, and a spatially and spectrally resolved ("S-squared") measurement of the hollow core fibre mode. Finally, we provide data that show it is possible to optimise transmission using this drooping of the fibre.

Data collection method:
The dataset consists of transmission measurements of fibres, and low-loss hollow core fibre interconnect devices, as well as spatially and spectrally resolved imaging of the light exiting the fibre. These are used to create loss spectra, and to analyse the multimode behaviour of light propagating through the hollow core fibre. We use the standard cutback measurement technique to attain losses and attenuations of our fibres and devices. We also monitor transmission while drooping the fibre, in order to observe the effect on the phase of the light at the second HCF-SMF interconnect.
Technical details and requirements:
The broadband light source used was an Ando AQ-4303B White Light Source, a Yokogawa AQ6374 Optical Spectrum Analyser was used to measure the transmission.
Additional information:
The data are organised according to the figures that appear in the corresponding publication. Each figure has an associated README text file which explains the details of the files for that particular figure.
