Abstract(in English) Chromatic dispersion compensation is one of the key technologies in WDM optical communication systems. Especially, in future reconfigurable transparent networks, tunable dispersion compensators (TDCs) will be indispensable. A TDC consisting of all-pass ring resonators based on silica waveguide not only provides a large tuning range but also has structural advantages such as compactness and integrabilty. However, the polarization dependent refractive indices induce by residual stress in the core result in reduction of effective bandwidth. In this paper, we proposed to employ a slightly flat core shape so as to compensate the polarization dependence, and verified the concept experimentally.
