Abstract
A method for manufacturing single polarisation fibre DFB lasers is pro posed. The method is based on UV post-processing, exploiting the UV in duced birefringence to shift the resonant dips of two polarisations to different positions in their respective reflection spectra. The metho d is successfully demonstrated on an Er2- fibre DFB laser.
