Abstract
Saturated absorption spectroscopy is performed inside hollow photonic bandgap fibers, with both 10 µm and 20 µm core diameters. Line width and signal quality depend on the fiber core diameter, as well as pressure and optical power. These parameters are optimized toward the creation of an optical reference. The effect of splicing the fiber to a single-mode fiber is also investigated.
