Random fiber Bragg grating Raman fiber laser
Optics Letters, 2014We demonstrate for the first time to our knowledge a Raman random fiber laser (RRFL) based on a long random fiber Bragg grating (RFBG-RRFL). Unlike other recently demonstrated random fiber lasers that rely on incoherent Rayleigh scattering feedback, the present scheme uses randomly distributed phase shifts inside a fiber-meter long Bragg grating as a ...

Bragg Gratings, Photosensitivity, and Poling in Glass Fibers and Waveguides: Applications and Fundamentals, 1997
Long period fiber gratings that couple light from guided core modes to non-guided cladding modes provide a means of introducing wavelength dependent losses in optical fiber systems.1 As a result, these in-fiber devices have found use as gain-equalizers in broadband optical fiber amplifiers,2 as band-rejection filters in high-power cascaded Raman fiber ...

Magnetically Tunable Fiber Bragg Gratings
Wavelength Division Multiplexing Components, 1999We believe we report the first demonstration of a broad-range (15.7 nm) tuning of fiber Bragg grating using fast, programmable, and latchable magnetic actuation. A key advantage is that the device requires no power except when shifting wavelengths.

Array of grating–fiber couplers
Optics Letters, 1990Along a single-mode fiber a number M of grating-fiber couplers are fabricated at equal spacings L(0). The fiber is coiled so that the couplers lie side by side, forming a planar optical antenna array. With varying optical frequency the resulting radiation lobes sweep slowly along the meridional direction but fast along the orthogonal azimuthal ...

Structured Chirped Fiber Bragg Gratings
Journal of Lightwave Technology, 2008In this paper, a theoretical and numerical analysis of novel in-fiber photonic devices based on a structured chirped fiber Bragg gratings (CFBGs) for sensing and communication applications is presented. The investigated structure consists in a CFBG with single or multiple defects obtained by a deep and localized stripping of the cladding layer along ...

Alterable grating fiber-optic switch
Applied Optics, 1981This paper describes a solid state high speed fiber-optic switch based on dynamically alterable magnetic stripe domains that occur naturally in epitaxial films of rare-earth iron garnet. The array of stripe domains acts collectively as a Faraday effect phase diffraction grating that deflects visible and infrared radiation. Electrically derived magnetic

Polymer micro-fiber Bragg grating
Optics Letters, 2013Polymer micro-fibers with inscribed Bragg gratings are reported in this Letter. Starting with a single-mode polymer optical fiber and implementing a two-stage tapering process, a 16 μm diameter micro-fiber is fabricated and a Bragg grating is inscribed in it that exhibits a peak reflected wavelength circa 1530 nm.

Tilted fiber Bragg grating sensors
Laser & Photonics Reviews, 2012AbstractOptical fiber gratings have developed into a mature technology with a wide range of applications in various areas, including physical sensing for temperature, strain, acoustic waves and pressure. All of these applications rely on the perturbation of the period or refractive index of a grating inscribed in the fiber core as a transducing ...

Journal of Lightwave Technology, 1997
In this paper, we describe the spectral characteristics that can be achieved in fiber reflection (Bragg) and transmission gratings. Both principles for understanding and tools for designing fiber gratings are emphasized. Examples are given to illustrate the wide variety of optical properties that are possible in fiber gratings.
