The Stretch-and-write Technique for Fabrication of Fiber Bragg-grating Arrays
Abstract
The photolithographic method with the improvement of the stretch-and-write technique was applied for the fabrication of fiber-Bragg grating arrays. This procedure allows to change the grating peak wavelength utilizing a single phase mask. A properly designed apparatus was described to write spatially and spectrally well separated grating arrays, distributed on a length of fiber, as well as arrays of adjacent gratings spectrally concatenated.
