Abstract :
A novel NZ-DSF with dispersion slope lower than 0.020 ps/nm2/km and λ0 shorter than 1400 nm has designed and fabricated. The adaptability of a Raman amplifier and dispersion compensator was improved. A BER lower than 10-9 both in the C- and L-bands was obtained without dispersion compensation.
