An integrated reconfigurable Bragg grating utilising a photoresponsive co-polymer
Reconfigurable Bragg grating devices are of significant interest for telecomm applications. Such devices can be fabricated by combining a UV-written silica Bragg grating with an azobenzene-based polymer - a photoresponsive material that undergoes reversible refractive index change on exposure to ultraviolet light. The preliminary 17 GHz tuning response suggests future applicability.

Abstract
Reconfigurable Bragg grating devices are of significant interest for telecomm applications. Such devices can be fabricated by combining a UV-written silica Bragg grating with an azobenzene-based polymer - a photoresponsive material that undergoes reversible refractive index change on exposure to ultraviolet light. The preliminary 17 GHz tuning response suggests future applicability.
