Photoinduced Fresnel reflectors in germanium-doped optical fibers

A novel method of fabricating low reflectance mirrors has been developed based on the photosensitivity of hydrogen-loaded, germanium-doped optical fibers. Using a side-writing technique, point-wise refractive index changes have been induced in the core of Ge-doped optical fibers via ultraviolet ligh...
