  • Abstract
    The operation of graded-index fibres can be optimised in the neighbourhood of some wavelength whenever two dopants are available. Under the assumption that the index is a linear function of the dopant concentrations, a class of relations between dopants is found, which is related to that given by Olshansky.4 The case of a fibre doped with germanium and fluorine is treated.
