    摘要: Disclosed is a dispersion-compensating (DC) module [740] comprising a first length of DC optical fiber [10] in tandem with a second length of a standard singlemode optical fiber. The DC fiber is fabricated from silica glass and has a refractive index profile that includes a core region [51] surrounded by a cladding region [52] having a nominal refractive index n 4 . The core region includes a central core [511] having a nominal refractive index n 1 , a "trench" [512] surrounding the central core having a nominal refractive index n 2 , and a "ridge" [513] surrounding the trench having a nominal refractive index n 3 . A range of refractive index profiles has been found that provides relative dispersion slopes (RDS) that are greater than 0.012 nm -1 and figures of merit that are greater than 200 ps/(nm-dB).
