Propagation of optical pulses through a periodic dielectric structure (Bragg Grating) designed as a delay line interferometer. Example of a designed fiber Bragg grating.

<p>Propagation of optical pulses through a periodic dielectric structure (Bragg Grating) designed as a delay line interferometer. <br> <br> A 9 cm fiber Bragg grating is designed (and fabricated) for this purpose.</p> <p>The top video shows the simulated propagation of a single optical pulse.</p> <p>The bottom video shows the simulated propagation of a sequence of optical pulses, with relative pi-phase shifts in the last pulse, showing both constructive and destructive interferences effect</p>
