  • Abstract
    Summary form only given. Fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs) written with ultraviolet light are becoming of increasing importance in fiber systems because of their high performance, versatility, and excellent physical characteristics. In this paper, we report a technique that transforms a FBG into a Bragg cell or acousto-optic modulator operating in reflection mode.
