摘要
Unapodised and apodised 10 mm and 100 mm long step-chirped fibre Bragg gratings have been theoretically modeled as a function of the number of sections for the first time. It is shown that even with a relatively few sections, the reflectivity and dispersion characteristics approach that of a continuously chirped grating, improving dramatically with apodisation. Experimental results for a 200 section step-chirped Bragg grating are compared with theory. A simple relationship between bandwidth, length and the number of sections in a step-chirped grating is presented.
