We study theoretically how the brightness of pumps, with fixed profiles, affects the temporal mode structure of squeezed states generated by fixed parametric waveguided sources. We find that the temporal modes of these squeezed states can be partially mismatched and thus distinguishable, which is undesirable when using these states as resources for quantum computing or heralded state generation. By studying common frequency filtering techniques used experimentally, we find that although one can regain indistinguishability it comes at the price of potentially greatly reducing the purity of the state. We consider three different source configurations: unapodized single pass, apodized single pass, and apodized double pass. We find that the double pass configuration produces optimal results with almost perfectly indistinguishable states over varying degrees of brightness.
