“…Of these, Bragg gratings are widely used in a range of applications, such as filters, couplers, resonators, polarizers, sensors, multiplexer, and dispersion compensators [1][2]. In an optical communication system, fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs) have attracted much attention because they can cost-effectively provide advanced features for such devices, owing to their characteristic spectral responses [3][4][5][6]. Though FBGs are simply fabricated with unique spectral responses, they are too lengthy to integrate with other components.…”
