Strong photosensitive gratings in tin-doped phosphosilicate optical fibres

Strong photosensitive gratings of both type I and II have been demonstrated in germanium-free tin-doped phosphosilicate fibers. The fibers have strong absorption (~0.8 dB/µm) at the writing wavelength of ~248 nm because of tin doping. This is the first time to our knowledge that such strong gratings...
