Abstract :
Bragg gratings in fiber and planar waveguides are now coming into practical use for telecommunications, data communications, and signal processing applications. New high power fiber lasers are also using fiber gratings. Various devices for these applications require different types of Bragg gratings. Reliability and low cost manufacturing issues are important for utilization of the gratings in practical systems.
