Abstract
To analyze the stability of nearly zero flattened dispersion, the dispersion deviations for three kinds of PCFs are calculated when the hole diameters deviate from their designed values. Numerical results show that around the wavelength of 1.55 μm, the dispersion deviations of both the PCF with three-fold symmetry core and the PCF with hexagonal lattice are much less than that of the PCF with different hole diameters in different rings. Therefore, the stabilities of nearly zero flattened dispersion of the first two kinds of PCFs are much better than that of the last one. Considering the confinement loss, the PCF with three-fold symmetry core is preferable to practical use.
