Abstract :
A low-loss dispersion-modified single-mode fiber with low dispersion in the 1.5 μm wavelength region has been designed and fabricated by the VAD method. A minimum loss of 0.23dB/km at 1.55 μm and a small dispersion slope around the zero-dispersion wavelength of 0.023 ps/km/nm2 have been achieved. Moreover, for the first time, the tolerance of the core radius is estimated by waveguide dispersion measurement
