  • Abstract
    All-optical modulation of the transmission of a grating by picosecond laser pulses (1064 nm) in an optical fibre is demonstrated. The photosensitive grating is reflecting in the visible (514.5 nm) and the modulation is achieved by changing the refractive index through cross-phase modulation.
