  • Long-period fiber grating etching technology

    Long-period fiber grating etching technology

    This review provides a comprehensive analysis of the primary fabrication techniques enabling this approach, including CO 2 laser inscription, femtosecond laser micromachining, electric-arc discharge, chemical etching, and fusion tapering. This study proposes a facile method for fabricating long-period fiber gratings. Optical designs were created so that laser light could be written into the grating structure on the fiber cladding without the need to remove the protective polyimide (PI) bufer layer. A laser-assisted wet chemical. Structure-Modulated Long-Period Fiber Gratings (SM-LPFGs) represent an advancement in fiber optic sensor technology, moving beyond traditional photosensitivity-based fabrication to achieve enhanced performance through the direct physical modification of the geometry of the fiber. Presented in this research are four types of CLPFG with periods of 660. This study presents a new process using inductively a coupled plasma dry etching method to manufacture a long-period fiber grating filter with exact period, vertical sidewalls, and smooth etched surfaces, and the filter is thus named a perfectly notched long-period fiber grating (NLPFG).
