Long period fiber gratings produced by the electric arc technique have found an increasing
interest by the scientific community due to their ease to fabricate, virtually enabling the …

We present an overview of the applications of the electric arc technique related to optical
fibre technology. The use of arc discharges ranges from the well-known fibre splicing, going …

Wideband-adjustable band-rejection filters based on chirped and tilted fiber Bragg gratings
(CTFBG) are proposed and experimentally demonstrated. The flexible chirp-rate and wide …

This paper presents a systematic review on the long-period fiber grating (LPFG) formed by
the electric arcing method. The basic concept of LPFG and the background of the electric …

A loss-tunable sandwiched long-period fiber grating (SLPFG) filter is proposed in this Letter.
This SLPFG utilized thick SU8 photoresist layers to induce refractive index modulations, and …

A new long period fiber grating (LPFG) fabrication method based on periodically arranging a
series of waist-enlarged fusion bitapers (WFBs) along the axis of a standard single mode …

Fiber Gratings are found among the most popular devices widely used in both, optical
communications and optical fiber sensing. Within optical communication networks, optical …

Based on the photoelastic effect, a microtapered long-period fiber grating (MLPFG) is
fabricated by using a CO 2 fusion splicer, which has high repeatability and small loss. By …

A novel fabrication method for corrugated long-period fiber gratings (CLPFG) is presented in
this study. The patterned SU-8 photoresist is used as a double-side stopper layer for a wet …

We present an all-fiber Mach-Zehnder interferometer consisting of two consecutive fattened
sections of dispersion-shifted fiber that act as in-series long period fiber gratings. The …
