摘要
A method of, and apparatus for, inscribing a grating in an optical waveguide so as to reduce transverse inscription variations, are provided. The waveguide is exposed to multiple beams or interference patterns of actinic radiation from multiple azimuthal directions. The beams of actinic radiation are preferably split into a plurality of beams that have wave vectors with different longitudinal components, e.g., via gratings such as phase masks. The periods and phases of the interference patterns of the beams of actinic radiation are preferably matched. A control beam may be provided that does not hit the waveguide. A control loop optionally controls at least one of the position or orientation of at least one of the beams of actinic radiation. The gratings are, for example, Bragg gratings.
