چکیده
A further extension of the iteration method for beam propagation calculation is presented that can be applied for volume Bragg gratings (VBGs) with extremely large grating strength. A reformulation of the beam propagation formulation is presented for analyzing the reflection of a laser beam by a deformed VBG. These methods will be shown to be very accurate and efficient. A VBG with generic z-dependent distortion has been analyzed using these methods.

متن کاملBeam Reflection by Transversely Chirped Volume Bragg Grating
Reflective uniform volume Bragg gratings (VBGs) in photo-thermo-refractive (PTR) glass are used as narrow-band output couplers in high-power lasers with different gain media [1]. VBGs with longitudinally chirped grating period are used for stretching and compression of ultrashort laser pulses in well established chirped pulse amplification schemes [2]. Here we discuss reflective VBGs with chirp...

In this study, a new numerical method is introduced to obtain the exact shape of output pulse in the chalcogenide fiber Bragg grating (FBG). A Gaussian pulse shape with 173 ps width is used as an input pulse for lunching to a 6.6 mm nonlinear FBG. Because of bistable and hysteresis nature of nonlinear FBG the time sequence of each portion of pulse is affected the shape of output pulse. So we di...
