Dispersion Tailoring in a High-Index Core Bragg Fiber

Abstract: In this paper, investigation on the effect of variation in fill factor ratio d/? on the dispersion characteristics, particularly on zero dispersion wavelength of a High-index Core Bragg fiber has been done. The dispersion of the Bragg fiber can be tailored to achieve desired zero dispersion wavelength by changing the fill factor ratio d/?.

Keywords: Bragg fiber; dispersion; fill factor; pitch; zero dispersion wavelength.
