Abstract(in English) We report on the design rules for dispersion decreasing fiber pulse compressors and report on the realization of a polarization-maintaining dispersion-flattened dispersion decreasing fiber. Dispersion-flattening is shown to be necessary for obtaining sub-100 fs pulse widths and for reducing the dependence of the compression on input wavelength. The polarization is stabilized by the PANDA construction, however, the compression properties differ depending on the polarization axis due to a dispersion in the dispersion tapers. The slow axis is optimal for use due to the lack of polarization instability at high powers, so the compression was optimized for this state of polarization. At the optimum input power, which minimizes the pulse-to-pulse jitter, the pulse width was 54 fs, spectral width was 54 nm, and the time-bandwidth product was 0.36. The pulse width decreased to as short as 43 fs with increased input power, though at the expense of higher jitter.
