Moiré apodized reflective volume Bragg grating

چکیده
Volume Bragg grating (VBG) with refractive index modulation (RIM) apodized with sinusoidal semiperiod profile is studied theoretically and experimentally. An apodized VBG of this type was fabricated with a sequential recording of two VBGs with slightly different resonant Bragg wavelengths in the same glass wafer. As a result, a moiré pattern was produced with a constant average refractive index and a slow sinusoidal envelope of RIM. Modeling showed that an apodized VBG with a sinusoidal semiperiod has provided a suppression of the sidelobes in the reflection spectrum. The experimental measurements are in good agreement with the theoretical predictions. This type of VBG is suitable for high-resolution spectroscopy applications due to a significant reduction of sidelobes. © 2018 Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers (SPIE) [DOI: 10.1117/1.OE.57.3.037106]

متن کاملIntrinsic apodization of Bragg gratings written using UV-pulse interferometry
We present a new interferometric technique to write apodized Bragg gratings. Along the fiber, two UV-pulses interfere with a variable time delay creating a gaussian apodization profile which strongly reduces the reflectivity side-lobes. This method allows writing of truly apodized gratings by single exposure of a uniform phase-mask. Introduction: In optical communication systems, applications o...

A novel triangular-shaped plasmonic metal-insulator-metal (MIM) Bragg grating waveguide is introduced, whose band-gap is narrower than that of the conventional step type and wider than that of the sawtoothshaped one. Moreover apodized triangular-shaped MIM Bragg grating structures are proposed in order to reduce the side lobes of the transmission spectrum, because the Bragg reflector with a saw...
متن کاملQuantum theory of fibre Bragg grating solitons*
Following the pioneering work of Professor Haus, a general quantum theory for bi-directional nonlinear optical pulse propagation problems is developed and applied to study the quantum properties of fibre Bragg grating solitons. Fibre Bragg grating solitons are found to be automatically amplitude squeezed after passing through the grating and the squeezing ratio saturates after a certain grating...
