Abstract
We report on the detection of picosecond pulsed squeezed light generated by an optical parametric amplification in a periodically poled waveguide. By using a temporally shaped local oscillator in a balanced homodyne detection, we obverved the squeezing of below the shot noise level. The squeezing level at the exit of the waveguide was estimated to be .
