Planar Optical Waveguide Manufacturing Process
This article explores the main fabrication methods for polymeric optical waveguides, such as traditional and maskless photolithography, laser ablation, hot embossing, nanoimprint lithography, the Mosquito method, inkjet printing, aerosol jet printing, and. Planar waveguides, also known as slab waveguides, are a fundamental component in the field of photonics. These structures are essential for guiding light in a controlled manner, and they have a wide range of applications in optical communications, lasers, and other photonic devices. While Bragg gratings are routinely patterned within optical fibers using the point-by-point or line-by-line technique, the objective of our work is to produce Bragg grating sensors within planar glass substrates. In principle, they function just like fibers and are also described by the same parameters.

How to measure strain using fiber Bragg gratings
This paper gives a short introduction to FBG sensors, points out their special strengths and weaknesses and describes a measuring system which enables strain gages and FBGS to be measured simultaneously, providing all data processing functions originally developed. The work is devoted to the consideration of methods for determining the strain of objects using fiber Bragg gratings under a high-frequency vibration or pulsed mechanical action, which is difficult to perform using widespread methods and devices. A fiber Bragg grating is a small length of optical fiber that comprises a pattern of many reflection points that creates a reflection of particular wavelengths of incident light.
