Abstract
Embodiments of the present invention are generally related to embodiments of the present invention relate to a fiber stretchers module for use in the 1550 nm wavelength range. In one embodiment of the present invention, a fiber stretcher module for use in the 1550 nm wavelength range comprises a fiber having a relative dispersion slope, RDS, and a relative dispersion curvature, RDC, wherein a ratio of said slope to said curvature is between about 30 nm and about 0 nm, having a dispersion value of less than about −10 ps/(nm·km) at about 1550 nm, and a RDS is equal to or greater than 0.
