Abstract :
We present a new tuning method for chromatic dispersion compensators, which can be optically tunable. The dispersion compensators were made in Er/Yb co-doped fiber and were pumped with 980nm laser diodes. The tunable dispersion for a chirped grating and also a uniform-period grating was successfully demonstrated in the experiment.
