Abstract

Two experimental setups, using the fourth harmonic of a Nd:YAG laser (266 nm), for producing Bragg gratings by the external method are described and their results presented and discussed. The two different setups allow the fabrication of gratings of controlled spectral bandwidth (0.3 to 5 nm) with peak position between 1.3 and 1.6 micrometers . The stability of the system and the possibility of writing type IIA gratings are also discussed.
