Abstract: There is provided an optical frequency converter comprising: an optical guiding structure having an input and an output, and comprising: a first grating portion adjacent to the input; a second grating portion adjacent to output, and a third grating between the first and second grating portion to form an apodized step-chirped grating extending between the input and the output. Each grating portion comprises a plurality of sections each comprising a plurality of segments. Each segment has a segment width and comprises a poled region having a poled width at least equal to one micron and a reversely poled region. The segment width for all of the grating portions and a duty ratio of the poled width to the segment width are constant within each section. The duty ratio increases within the first grating portion, decreases within the second grating portion, and is constant within the third grating portion.

Abstract: An optical fibre in a core and a cladding that includes an inner cladding region with a refractive index that is photosensitive to UV light, surrounded by a non-photosensitive outer cladding region. Refractive index gratings can be written into the cladding region. Also, the refractive index of the inner region can be altered by exposure to UV light to achieve mode matching at a splice between fibres with different core diameters. An optical fibre laser is disclosed with integral refractive index gratings in the cladding of a fibre with an optically active core.

Abstract: An optical fibre is fixed against a first face of a prism. A coherent beam of optical radiation is directed at the prism such that a portion B propagates directly to the first face while a second portion propagates via total internal reflection at a second face. The interference of the two portions creates a refractive index grating in the fibre at a wavelength longer than that of the radiation. The method provides a stable and simple method of sidewriting of waveguide gratings.

Abstract: A method of structurally modifying a silica monomode optical fiber (4) by launching optical power into the fiber (4) from an Nd:YAG laser operating at 1.064 .mu.m and raising the temperature of a portion of the fiber (4) by bringing a metal film (12) into contact with a polished half-coupler block (6) to absorb energy from the laser (2). A structural modification of the fiber is initiated which propagates towards the laser (2) sustained by the optical power. It provides a means of decommissioning an optical fiber. The modified optical fiber (4) has regular periodic damage sites which can be used to form a diffraction grating. The method may also be used as an optical power limiter to protect optical networks from too high optical power inputs.

Abstract: The present invention is concerned with a process for fabricating a buried optical waveguide, comprising providing a multi-layer piece of material having a waveguide core layer, generating a laser beam and producing by ablation at least two trenches by applying the laser beam onto the multi-layer piece of material. The two trenches extend through the multi-layer piece of material including the core layer. Upon the ablation, melted material from the multi-layer piece is produced and the core layer is encapsulated between the two trenches with the melted material to produce the buried optical waveguide in the multi-layer piece of material. The present invention also relates to a buried optical waveguide comprising a multi-layer piece of material having a waveguide core layer, at least two trenches laser ablated through the multi-layer piece of material including the core layer and encapsulating material having melted from the multi-layer piece upon laser ablation and leaked to cover and therefore encapsulate the core layer in the at least two trenches to thereby form the buried optical waveguide.

Abstract: A device for recording a refractive index pattern in a photosensitive optical fiber includes a rotary disc formed with a phase mask in a circular pattern, which is rotated by an axis. The phase mask is illuminated with laser light in a region so that a moving interference pattern is formed. The optical fiber is moved along a path in synchronism with the moving interference pattern so that the pattern becomes recorded in the fiber. The pattern can be formed continuously over long fiber lengths, e.g., of the order of one meter.

Abstract: It has been demonstrated that B containing glasses are sensitive to radiation in the band 225-275 nm and, therefore, B2O3 glasses are particularly adapted to receive refractive index modulation, e.g., to make reflection gratings. Glasses containing SiO2 and B2O3 are particularly suitable when the grating is to be localized in the cladding of a fiber. Glasses containing SiO2, GeO2, and B2O3 are suitable when the grating is in the path region of a waveguide, e.g., in the core of a fiber.
