Abstract :
This paper presents an optimum design for highly nonlinear dispersion managed photonic crystal fibers. The APSS version 2.3 software is used as the simulation tool. According to simulation, an eight-ringed photonic crystal fiber can be designed with a high nonlinear coefficient at 1550 nm of the order 36.5 W-1km-1 with simultaneously flatter dispersion characteristics and low confinement losses. This fiber also assumes a high birefringence and has a modest number of design parameters.
