The chirping profile and the chirp rate of the fiber gratings can be controlled by simply varying the tension applied. Both the theory and experimental results are presented.展开更多

But the Bragg wavelength of UV-written fiber grating will shift from its initial value as the remaining hydrogen diffuses out of such fiber. A simple model to calculate the index change of hydrogenated fibers is presented. The theoretical model is in good agreement with experimental results and it can well predict the final wavelength position of UV-written weak fiber grating.展开更多
