Abstract

A unique ultranarrowband fiber-optic phase-shifted Fabry–Perot Bragg grating filter for atmospheric water vapor lidar measurements was designed, fabricated, and successfully tested. Customized optical fiber Bragg gratings were fabricated so that two transmission filter peaks occurred: one (89% transmission, 8 pm FWHM) near the 946-nm water vapor absorption line and the other peak (80% transmission, 4 pm FWHM) at a region of no absorption. Both transmission peaks were within a 2.66-nm stop band. Demonstration of tension tuning to the 946. 0003-nm water vapor line was achieved, and the performance characterization of custom-made optical fiber Bragg grating filters are presented. These measurements are successfully compared to theoretical calculations using a piecewise-matrix form of the coupled-mode equations.
