Abstract

We demonstrate the direct inscription of aperiodic fiber Bragg gratings (AFBGs) for their use as in-fiber filter elements. The modifications are induced by focusing ultrashort laser pulses with an oil-immersion objective into the fiber core. We apply an advanced point-by-point inscription technique for flexible period adaptation. The fabricated AFBGs are targeted on the suppression of 10 lines in a single grating and simulations based on the specific design show excellent agreement. Furthermore, we discuss the application in astronomy as filters for the suppression of OH emission lines.
