A writing technique for long fiber Bragg gratings with complex reflectivity profiles

We have developed and demonstrated a novel technique to manufacture very long gratings with a nearly arbitrary reflectivity profile. The technique is based upon writing a set of consecutive subgratings with interferometric control of the relative position of each subgrating.
