چکیده

Femtosecond laser writing is applied to form Bragg grating waveguides in the diamond bulk. Type II waveguides are integrated with a single pulse point-by-point periodic laser modification positioned toward the edge of the waveguide core. These photonic devices, operating in the telecommunications band, allow for simultaneous optical waveguiding and narrowband reflection from a fourth-order grating. This fabrication technology opens the way toward advanced 3D photonic networks in diamond for a range of applications.

<Edited by Milan Brandt and Erol Harvey> POINT BY POINT FEMTOSECOND LASER INSCRIPTION OF FIBRE AND WAVEGUIDE BRAGG GRATINGS FOR PHOTONIC DEVICE FABRICATION

We present a flexible and rapid method for the production of Bragg gratings in a range of optical waveguides such as optical fibres and direct laser-written waveguides in bulk media. Using a low repetition rate (1 kHz) femtosecond laser, Bragg grating structures can be written in a point-by-point fashion (where each laser pulse inscribes one period of the Bragg structure) in both passive and ac...

Direct laser written waveguide-Bragg gratings in bulk fused silica.

Optical waveguides that incorporate Bragg gratings have been written in bulk fused silica by using the femtosecond laser direct-write method and without the need for lithography or ion-beam techniques. A single manufacturing process is used to create waveguide-Bragg grating reflectors for operation in the C band.

Point-by-Point Femtosecond Laser Inscription of Bragg Gratings In High NA (>0.4) Germania-Doped Optical Fibre

Using point-by-point femtosecond laser inscription, a fibre Bragg grating (FBG) was written in a high NA germania-doped fibre. Thermal tests demonstrated that the FBG could withstand temperatures up to 800°C without significant effects on reflectivity.

Low-energy distortion-free femtosecond pulse laser inscription in coated, free-standing optical fiber

Low-energy, distortion-free femtosecond pulse laser inscription in coated freestanding fiber is demonstrated for the first time. Methodology features radial plane beamshaping to achieve optimal focusing and spot-like inscription within the fiber. Strong, firstorder fiber Bragg grating is achieved in coated single-mode fiber using only 50nJ pulse energy.

Point-by-point inscription of first-order fiber Bragg grating for C-band applications.

The influence of the fiber geometry on the point-by-point inscription of fiber Bragg gratings using a femtosecond laser is highlighted. Fiber Bragg gratings with high spectral quality and strong first-order Bragg resonances within the C-band are achieved by optimizing the inscription process. Large birefringence (1.2x10(-4)) and high degree of polarization-dependent index modulation are observe...
