Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
We present a rigorous design of few-mode erbium doping fiber (FM-EDF) with an oversized two-layer erbium ion distribution at the central region with effective differential modal gain (DMG) mitigation over the C-band. The proposed erbium doping distribution allows for a similar overlapping integral value among the guided modes, leading to a signal gain equalization over the C-band. When the length of the proposed FM-EDF is 8 m under the cladding pumping power of 2.5 W, our calculated results reveal that four linearly polarized (LP)-modes can achieve an average gain per mode of 24.8 dB and a typical DMG of less than 0.64 dB over the C-band. Meanwhile, we carry out numerical simulations to explore the fabrication tolerance of the oversized two-layer erbium doping distribution with respect to the DMG, indicating stable DMG mitigation over the C-band. We believe that such new manipulation of erbium doping distribution is helpful for the multiple-dimensional multiplexing of fiber optical transmission.
