چکیده

Effects of fabrication conditions on the double-peak structure observed in fiber Bragg gratings at harmonics of the Bragg wavelength were investigated, showing that slight variations in the alignment of the phase mask can affect the grating spectra significantly. A single peak occurs only when the incident beam direction is perfectly normal with respect to the fiber.

Optimization of Bistability in Nonlinear Chalcogenide Fiber Bragg Grating for All Optical Switch and Memory Applications

We solve the coupled mode equations governing the chalcogenide nonlinear fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs) numerically, and obtain the bistability characteristics. The characteristics of the chalcogenide nonlinear FBGs such as: switching threshold intensity, bistability interval and on-off switching ratio are studied. The effects of FBG length and its third order nonlinear refractive index on FBG cha...

Intrinsic 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...

Unique Solution of Short Pulse Propagation in Nonlinear Fiber Bragg Grating

In this study, a new numerical method is introduced to obtain the exact shape of output pulse in the chalcogenide fiber Bragg grating (FBG). A Gaussian pulse shape with 173 ps width is used as an input pulse for lunching to a 6.6 mm nonlinear FBG. Because of bistable and hysteresis nature of nonlinear FBG the time sequence of each portion of pulse is affected the shape of output pulse. So we di...

Fabrication of multiple fiber-Bragg gratings on one SMF using a single phase-mask

UV light from an Excimer laser operating at 248 nm with fluence of 800 mJ/cm2 per pulse at 30 Hz repetition rate is used for writing process of a fiber Bragg Grating (FBG). Multiple FBGs with different center wavelength and reflectivity are produced by varying strain and exposure time on a single strand of a SMF where 1552.75 nm is the center wavelength of the unstretched FBG. The in-situ measu...

Novel fiber Bragg grating fabrication system for long gratings with independent apodization and with local phase and wavelength control.

We proposed and demonstrated a novel practical fiber Bragg grating (FBG) fabrication setup constructed with high performance linear stages, piezoelectric translation (PZT) stages, and a highly stable continuous wave laser. The FBG fabrication system enables writing of long FBGs by a continuous translate-and-write process and allows implementation of arbitrary chirp and apodization. A key innova...
