Abstract
Erbium-doped fiber lasers are now recognized as potential sources of short pulses in the 1,55-µm spectral region, suitable for low- loss soliton transmission systems in silica optical fibers.1-3 Also, reflection gratings at 1.5 µm can now be conveniently written into silica fibers by transverse illumination using intense ultraviolet laser beams.4
