  • What happens when fiber gratings get too large

    What happens when fiber gratings get too large

    Gratings should be at least as large as the incident light cone or beam, or else light from the edges will be lost. A set of reftectors like this is called a grating reftector and can be produced in an optical fiber by imposing a variation in the refractive index of the core periodically along the fiber axis. This can be achieved by making use of fiber photosensitivity. Typically, the perturbation is approximately periodic over a certain length of e.
