چکیده
This is the first report, to our knowledge, of refractive-index grating side writing in 10 mol.% GeO(2)-doped fiber by the near-UV light of a cw Ar(+) laser (333-364 nm). An induced-index magnitude as large as 1.9 x 10(-4) at 1.7x10(5) W/cm(2) UV power density has been achieved. The observed gratings have exhibited the same temperature stability as gratings written by a KrF excimer laser (248 nm).

Inscription of fiber Bragg gratings by ultraviolet femtosecond radiation.
We report on what is to our knowledge the first fabrication of fiber Bragg gratings by UV femtosecond radiation. The Bragg gratings, with photoinduced refractive-index modulation up to 1.92 x 10(-3) in H2-loaded SMF-28 and up to 1.05 x 10(-3) in Nufern GF1 fibers, were written by high-intensity (31-77-GW/cm2) femtosecond pulses at 264 nm. The dependence of the refractive-index modulation on int...
متن کاملDirectly photoinscribed refractive index change and Bragg gratings in Ohara WMS-15 glass ceramic.
We inscribed thick volume gratings in WMS-15 glass ceramic by ultraviolet light at 193 and 248 nm. Unlike earlier work in ceramic materials, the inscription process modified the optical properties of the material without the need for any additional chemical or thermal processing. Experimental evidence from measurements of grating growth, thermal annealing, and spectral absorption indicates that...
متن کاملFabrication of fiber Bragg gratings with 267 nm femtosecond radiation.
Strong high-quality fiber Bragg gratings with photoinduced refractive-index modulation of more than 10-(3) were written in a Corning SMF-28 fiber, a P(2)O5-doped-core fiber and a pure-silica-core fluorine-doped-cladding fiber by third-harmonic radiation (267 nm, 150 fs and 1.2-1.8x1011 W/cm(2)) of a femtosecond Ti:sapphire laser using a phase mask. We compare the 267-nm photosensitivity respons...
متن کاملSurface-Corrugated Microfiber Bragg Grating
Optical fiber Bragg gratings (FBG) are key devices for optical communication and sensors. FBGs are based on a periodic variation in the refractive index of the fiber core and allow for the reflection of a narrowband signal centered at a specific Bragg wavelength. Over the last two decades, FBGs have been manufactured mainly by modifying the core refractive index using interferometric or point-b...
متن کاملContribution of photoinduced densification to refractive-index modulation in Bragg gratings written in Ge-doped silica fibers.
We have computed the contribution of UV-light-induced densification to the refractive-index modulation of fiber Bragg gratings. Our results confirm that, for strong gratings written in Ge-doped silica fibers with 248-nm UV light, density changes account for a major part of the photosensitivity effect.
