Abstract
A new method is presented for the passive temperature compensation of piezo -tunable fibre Bragg gratings using the negative thermal expansion coeffici ent of the low voltage piezoelectric ceramic. A centre wavelength shift of only 0.5pm/K over a wide range from -10 to 60 degrees C has been shown expe rimentally.
