Transmission evolution of fibre Bragg grating (FBG) in case of overexposure.
(a) Transmission spectrum evolutions of the two orthogonal polarization modes (TE and TM) from original type I-IR fibre Bragg grating (FBG) to highly polarization dependant phase-shifted FBG (P-PSFBG) in case of overexposure. (b) Measured transmission loss and Bragg wavelength of P-PSFBG as a function of exposure time.
