We numerically report the design of a modified octagonal photonic crystal fiber (M-OPCF) for broadband dispersion compensation covering the C and L communication bands, i.e., wavelengths ranging from 1530 to 1625 nm. It was shown that the proposed broadband compensating PCF can be designed to simultaneously exhibit a high negative dispersion coefficient and a relative dispersion slope (RDS) close to that of a conventional single-mode optical fiber (SMF). From our results, it was found that the M-OPCF has a large negative dispersion [-226 to -290 ps/(nm.km)] over the C- and L-bands, and an RDS close to that of an SMF of about 0.0034 nm(-1). In addition to this, the effective dispersion, residual dispersion, confinement loss, and polarization properties of the proposed PCF are also reported and discussed.
