摘要
We demonstrate experimentally fabrication of CO2 laser written long-period fiber gratings （LPFGs） in single-mode fiber （SMF） under tension. New transmission dips can be generated due to the frozen-in stress in the fiber under tension. Dynamics analysis of laser writing process is performed to study the mechanism of the grating inscription. Experimental results show that the wavelength shift of new generated resonance dips can shift towards the longer or shorter wavelength with the increase of laser scanning cycles for gratings with different pitches.
