| Abstract: | The dispersion slope of a dispersion-shifted fibre has been successfully equalised by using a bend-induced positive dispersion slope in a singlemode fibre. We realised the bent fibre dispersion slope equaliser by using a 1.3 μm zero-dispersion pure silica core fibre (PSM). This equaliser provides a dispersion slope of -12.54 ps/nm2 /km in the 1.5 μm region |
