Abstract
Fibre Bragg gratings with reduced/eliminated in-band dispersion are presented. When tested in add-drop configurations at 10Gbit/s both 25GHz and 50GHz bandwidth gratings are shown to exhibit superior performance with no dispersion-induced penalties in the stopband. Furthermore, the demonstrated linear-phase Bragg gratings have >70% channel filling factor values and reflectivities in excess of 99.9%.
