Abstract

An optical fiber grating device including a length of optical fiber having a predetermined fundamental mode effective guide index and a longitudinally tapered region for accessing a fundamental mode of light. The tapered region has a grating with a predetermined light spectral shaping property that shapes the light spectrum of the fundamental mode. A coating surrounds the tapered region of the fiber for modifying the fundamental mode effective guide index of the fiber in order to change the spectral shaping property of the grating.
