Fabrication of precise aperiodic multichannel fibre Bragg grating filters for spectral line suppression in hydrogenated standard telecommunications fibre

Abstract

We demonstrate the design and fabrication of multichannel fibre Bragg gratings (FBGs) with aperiodic channel spacings. These will be suitable for the suppression of specific spectral lines such as OH emission lines in the near infrared (NIR) which degrade ground based astronomical imaging. We discuss the design process used to meet a given specification and the fabrication challenges that can give rise to errors in the final manufactured device. We propose and demonstrate solutions to meet these challenges.
