A graded index multimode optical fiber comprising: (a) a silica core doped with germania, and at least one co-dopant, comprising one of P2O5 or F or B2O3, the core extending to outermost core radius, r1 and having a dual alpha, alpha1; (b) a low index inner cladding surrounding the core and off-set from said core; (c) an outer cladding surrounding and in contact with the inner cladding, such that at least the region of the inner cladding off-set from said core has a lower refractive index than the outer cladding. The center germania concentration at the centerline, CGe1, is greater than or equal to 0, and an outermost germania concentration in the core CGe2, at r1 is greater than or equal to 0. The core has a center co-dopant concentration at the centerline, Cc-d1, greater than or equal to 0, and an outermost co-dopant concentration Cc-d2, at r1, wherein Cc-d2 is greater than or equal to 0. |
