    摘要: To modify the longitudinal pitch distribution of a diffraction grating, longitudinal dimensional variation is imparted, over time, to a support along the entire length of a line on which said support carries, at least indirectly, a succession of diffraction elements of the grating. By way of example, the support is an auxiliary part on which an optical fiber is stuck, said fiber including said grating. An elongation coefficient dl/l represents the local relative value of dimensional variation. This value varies along said line. The invention is particularly applicable to making variable pitch light-refracting filters in optical fiber telecommunications systems.

    摘要: It is shown that by modifying the photosensitivity profile it is possible to provide better adjustment of the characteristic curve of a filter, and in particular to eliminate a reflection peak that is present within the working band. The photosensitivity profile is inverted to a considerable extent. In practice, the core of the fiber has only 20% of photosensitive doping material compared with the quantity of photosensitive doping material present in the cladding of the fiber.

    摘要: To adjust the spectral band of an attenuating optical fiber, a section of the optical fiber is formed that has a sloping Bragg grating. To smooth the spectral band of the attenuation, it is shown that the filter section must be short. Independently of selectivity, the smoothing makes it possible to avoid distorting the filtered signal. The length of the filter section is preferably 0.7 mm.

    摘要: An optical filter comprises a first mode converter converting an incident light signal propagating in an incident mode into a signal propagating in a propagation mode LPnm of order higher than that of said incident mode; a second mode converter converting the light signal of higher propagation order LPnm into a signal propagating in the incident propagation mode; and a slanted Bragg grating disposed between said first and second mode converters and adapted to couple the higher propagation order light signal LPnm in back-propagation into said incident mode. The filter is applicable to flattening gain and to multiplexing DWDM signals.
