By gluing a uniform FBG onto a uniform Zn channel for the GVD compensator and a linearly tapered Zn channel for the DS compensator, the thermal sensitivity of the FBG is enhanced. The thermal chirping of the FBG is given by the thermal expansion of a Zn channel, the thermooptic effect, and the thermal expansion of the optical fiber. Controlling the temperature distributions of the uniform FBG performs the tuning of GVD and/or DS, as well as their center wavelengths. These compensation devices can tune their GVD or DS while maintaining a constant center wavelength and change their center wavelengths while preserving constant GVD or DS values. The GVD can be tuned from -123.39 to -57.29 ps/nm with the center wavelength at 1552.9 nm, while the center wavelength can be shifted 2.2 nm with a GVD value of about -105 ps/nm. On the other hand, the DS can be tuned from -8.88 to -24.44 ps/ nm2 with the center wavelength at 1554.5 nm, while the center wavelength can be shifted 0.6 nm with a DS value of about -10.4 ps/ nm2. © 2007 IEEE.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Author keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Chirped fiber Bragg grating,Dispersion slope,Thermooptic effect[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Indexed keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Chirped fiber Bragg grating (FBG),Dispersion compensation,Dispersion slope (DS),Group velocity dispersion (GVD),Wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM)[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Funding details” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”DOI” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]https://doi.org/10.1109/JLT.2007.902111[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_column_text]Widget Plumx[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
