Fiber Bragg gratings are components for a wide range of applications in the areas of telecommunications, lasers and sensors [1]. Fiber Bragg grating technology has its origins in the discovery of photosensitivity of Germanium doped Silica by Hill et al. in 1978. Later it was found, that a permanent periodic modulation of the refractive index in the core of a photosensitive fiber could be produced by transverse illumination with an interference pattern created by a pair of strong UV-laser beams (left) [2].
