Abstract
Temperature-sensitive devices are mounted within a thermostatic structure that provides temperature compensation by applying compression or tensional forces to stabilize the performance of the device across a significant operating temperature range. In a preferred embodiment, an optical fiber refractive index grating is thermostatically compensated to minimize changes in the reflection wavelength of the grating.
