Transmission characteristics of sampled fiber Bragg grating and phase-shifted sampled fiber Bragg grating in the 2 μm band

摘要

For the first time, to the best of the authors' knowledge, the transmission characteristics of sampled fiber Bragg grating (SFBG) and phase-shifted SFBG (PS-SFBG) in the 2 mu m band were investigated theoretically and experimentally in detail. Using the transmission matrix method, the dependence of the transmission spectra of the SFBG and PS-SFBG on different grating parameters was simulated; the grade-zero bandwidths of the SFBG transmission peak and the PS-SFBG phase-shifted peak were as narrow as 0.076 and 0.022 nm respectively. Based on the theoretical analysis results, we experimentally fabricated the gratings with three narrow peaks. The results showed that the grade-0 transmission peak bandwidth of the SFBG and the phase-shifted-peak bandwidth of the PS-SFBG were narrower than 0.06 and 0.09 nm, respectively, indicating that the gratings are excellent filters for 2 mu m band multi-wavelength narrow-linewidth fiber lasers.
