Abstract
Described are methods and apparatuses for manufacturing ultralong fiber Bragg gratings with arbitrary reflection wavelength. The method may include: generating two holographic beams entering a fiber with a certain intersection angle there-between from one side of the fiber and forming holographic interference fringes in the fiber, driving the two holographic beams to scan along the fiber by a motorized translation stage controlled by a computer; and adjusting the intersection angle between the two beams by motorized rotation stages or motorized mirror mounts controlled by the computer. The present disclosure can be applied in manufacturing ultralong fiber Bragg gratings with arbitrary reflection wavelength, such as narrow-reflection-band gratings, chirped gratings, and apodized gratings, etc.
