Fiber designs for high figure of merit and high slope dispersion compensating fibers

Abstract: When the first dispersion compensating fiber modules were introduced to the market in the mid '90s, the only requirement to the fiber was that it should have a negative dispersion. As the bit rate and the complexity of the optical communication systems have increased, several other requirements have been added such as low loss, low non-linearities and the ability of broadband dispersion compensation.

“…The low dispersion designs, located close to the origin within region A, show the largest effective mode areas (of order of 2.8μm 2 ), while the most dispersive designs, located close to region B lower boundary, show effective mode areas of the order of 1.8μm 2 . Such inter-dependence has also been observed in highly dispersive fibers [2,7].…”

“…While the control of dispersion in optical fibers is usually associated with dispersion compensation in optical communications networks [2] there has also being increasing interest in its control for the purposes of harnessing and optimizing nonlinear optical effects. Parametric processes [3] and supercontinuum generation [4] rely upon tailoring the dispersion profile of the fiber to enhance energy transfer in certain spectral regions.…”

“…While the phase factor β(ω) presents dependence with respect to the frequency, the chromatic dispersion parameter D(λ) has it with optical wavelength and can be modeled by a Taylor's series expansion around the operation wavelength (Wandel and Kristensen, 2006). However, a practical insightful expression can be seen as in Eq.…”

“…7 In the first generation, zerodispersion shifted fibers (ZDSF) were used to achieve minimum loss and dispersion; but by increasing the number of signal wavelengths in DWDM networks, four-wave mixing (FWM) occurred which induces inter-channel crosstalk during the transmission of light. 8,9 Besides ZDSFs, non-zero dispersion shifted fibers (NZDSF) have been designed which avoid the phase matching condition and reduce the effects of FWM in optical networks. 1,4 By using NZDSF we may obtain a large effective area which minimizes the nonlinear effects; 7 however, larger effective area makes fiber more sensitive to bending loss.…”
