Mc. Farries et al., VERY BROAD REFLECTION BANDWIDTH (44NM) CHIRPED FIBER GRATINGS AND NARROW BANDPASS-FILTERS PRODUCED BY THE USE OF AN AMPLITUDE MASK, Electronics Letters, 30(11), 1994, pp. 891-892
Chirped gratings with very broad reflection bandwidths up to 44nm and
high reflectivity have been produced holographically in boron-codoped
and standard telecommunications fibres which have been hydrogen-soaked
. A 2nm wide transmission band has been produced within the broad refl
ection band by use of an amplitude mask during grating exposure.
