  • Abstract
    We present a novel inherent gain-flattened design of highly nonlinear photonic crystal fiber Raman amplifier exhibiting ±0.85-dB gain-ripples over 28-nm bandwidth using a single pump in C-band employing the leakage loss property with integrated dispersion compensation functionality.
