“…Linearly-chirped FBGs have been used extensively over the years for 2nd-order dispersion compensation in optical communication transmission systems [4,5]. Even with the current effectiveness of electronic dispersion compensation, FBG-based linear dispersion compensators are expected to continue to play a role in hybrid compensation schemes in future high speed optical systems [6,7]. In addition, linearly chirped FBG have been extensively used for pulse stretching and recompression in chirped-pulse amplification high power fiber laser systems [8].…”

Abstract:We revisit representative and widely used inverse-scattering fiber Bragg grating designs and shed physical insight into their characteristics. We first demonstrate numerically and experimentally that dispersionless square filters are actually dispersion compensated devices and we physically identify the spatially separated main (dispersive) reflector and dispersion compensator sections. We also look into the features of pure 2nd-order dispersion and 3rd-order dispersion compensator designs and discuss their physical importance. Finally, we use the gained physical insight to design strong symmetric gratings with dispersionless response from both sides. Using this knowledge we design and fabricate strong (>30dB) bidirectional dispersionless filters.
