Abstract:The regeneration of fibre Bragg gratings (FBG) is supposed to be seeded by the relief of the in-frozen core cladding stress of the fibre. Earlier results lead to the assumption that the diffusion process of small atoms or molecules through the glass matrix is sufficient to seed regeneration of an FBG. To prove this theory, a regeneration experiment was performed with hydrogen loaded, pristine and out-diffused SMF28 fibers, respectively. For the FBG in an out-diffused fibre, the fibre was stored at room tempera… Show more
