Abstract
An apodised chirped in-fibre Bragg grating that has a linear dispersio n characteristic is reported. The Frequency components of an optical p ulse (centre wavelength 1551 nm; 10 GHz bandwidth) incident on the gra ting are reflected with a relative delay that varies linearly from 0 t o 130 ps across the spectral width of the pulse. The dispersion compen sator is used to correct for the dispersion in a 100 km link (nondispe rsion shifted fibre) operating at a 10 Gbit/s transmission rate and a wavelength of 1551 nm.
