Abstract

Trench-assisted profiles allow reaching larger effective areas than conventional profiles. A 120 mum <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">2</sup> fiber with diameter of 125 mum and lower bend losses than those of SSMF is fabricated.
