K. Imamura et al., MECHANICAL STRENGTH CHARACTERISTICS OF TIN-CODOPED GERMANOSILICATE FIBER BRAGG GRATINGS BY WRITING THROUGH UV-TRANSPARENT COATING, Electronics Letters, 34(10), 1998, pp. 1016-1017
A Bragg grating reflector was fabricated through the coating with a ce
ntre wavelength of 1544.5nm, and a peak reflectivity of 100%. Breaking
strength of this grating was 61.05 N (4.97GPa) at a rate of 1% strain
/min. The change in the modulus of the coating layer was within 20%.
