Abstract
This dissertation presents the fabrication, characterization and application of short period fiber Bragg grating (FBG). The FBG is inscribed on high germania boron co-doped optical fiber by phase mask method with a 244nm continuous wave frequency doubled Argon ion laser as a laser source. The FBGs with reflectivity ranging from 98 -99.9%, bandwidth of 0.3 ~ 0.9nm and center wavelength of 1552.5 - 1553.5nm have been fabricated successfully with this method. The time taken for these inscriptions are within 10 to 30 minutes depending on alignment. The fabricated FBGs are characterized using both fiber amplifier (broadband source) and tunable laser source (narrow band source) as a probe source. The wavelength shift induced by temperature variation in the FBG is also studied. The thermal response is shown to be 0.01nml°C. The FBG is utilised successfully in a gain-clamped EDF A and fiber laser system,
