Research Abstract |
In this study, we have presented a theory for the phase-only sampled FBG and demonstrate that a sampled FBG of Nchannels would require √<N> times higher the maximum refractive index-modulation than that of the single-channel FBG. A novel continuous phase-only sampling function capable of producing up to 81-channel FBG with excellent channel uniformity and high in-band energy efficiency is presented and optimized by using the simulated annealing algorithm. In order to fabricate this kind of FBGs with a conventional side-writing phase-mask technique, both the diffraction effects and fabrication tolerance of the phase-shifted phase mask have also been addressed. Compared with the numerical results, a 45-channel (spacing of 100 GHz) and, an 81-channel (spacing of 50 GHz) phase-only sampled linearly chirped FBG are successfully demonstrated. We have presented a novel method for multi-channel FBG design, which enables us to design any kind of multi-channel FBGs where the spectrum response of

each channel could be either identical or non-identical. Particularly, 9-channel nonlinearly chirped FBG used as simultaneously dispersion and dispersion slope compensator has been demonstrated. We have demonstrated a novel method to measure the chromatic dispersion of a multi-channel fiber Bragg grating (FBG), which is based on an all-fiber asymmetrical Sagnac loop interferometer (ASLI) proposed Theoretical analyses to this proposed approach are presented in details. With this method, the chromatic dispersion and dispersion slope of a 51-channel FBG are simultaneously measured. The experimental results agree well with the ones obtained by using the general phase-shift method (PSM). This method has the advantages of simple configuration, low-cost, and high tolerance for the characteristics of FBG. We have presented a novel approach for the reflection equalization of a phase-only sampled fiber Bragg grating (FBG), where the grating is specially designed as a simultaneous dispersion and dispersion-slope compensator with channels up to 51. The sampling-function used is given with an analytical form with a linearly-chirped sampling period and is optimized by using the simulated annealing algorithm. Less
