Abstract :
We designed highly-nonlinear tellurite fibers with zero-dispersion near 1550 nm and the nonlinear coefficient gamma over 200 km-1 -W-1 using various structures including tapered fibers and photonic crystal structures. Applications to fiber optical parametric amplifiers (OPAs) are discussed
