Abstract :
Summary form only given. In summary, we have explored the optimized structure of dispersion compensated fibers (DCFs) based on actual performances considering self phase modulation (SPM) in DCFs, and it was confirmed that optimized structure with enhanced figure of merit (FOM) also benefits SPM suppression.
