Abstract

Summary form only given. In summary, we have presented the design of dispersion-flattened fibers with relatively large-effective-core areas employing the triple-cladding profile and successfully fabricated quasi-dispersion-flattened fibers exhibiting the dispersion slopes <0.03 ps/nm/sup 2//km at 1.55 /spl mu/m and the effective core areas >55 /spl mu/m/sup 2/.
