Abstract

Fibers with tailored mode profile may benefit special applications, for example, large mode size and low nonlinearity can improve the performance of dense wavelength-division-multiplexed systems. We demonstrate that it is possible to derive the index profile from the desired modal characteristics. The procedure may expedite the development of special fibers.
