Abstract: | For single-mode fibres the standard deviation of dispersion at the nominal zero-dispersion wavelength depends strongly on the dispersion slope. For dispersion-shifted fibres, optimum values of the slope as a function of production tolerances on core radius and index difference are found, and for dispersion-flattened fibres maximum allowable production tolerances are given. |
