Bragg Grating Waveguide Array Ultrafast Laser Inscribed into the Cladding of a Flat Fiber

We report the fabrication and initial characterization of a waveguide sensor array in the cladding of a flat fiber. The sensor, designed to independently measure the strain on three Bragg grating waveguides, exploits the true three dimensional fabrication technology of ultrafast laser inscription by...
