Abstract

A modified coupled-mode (CM) model is proposed for the optical behavior of thermally chirped Bragg gratings. The model accounts for the axial gradient in the modulation wavenumber, which has been ignored in the classical CM model. The model is used to characterize the optical behavior of a polymethyl methacrylate- based polymer Bragg grating subjected to nonisothermal conditions. The validity of the proposed method is verified by comparing the results of the modified CM model with those obtained from the exact numerical solution.
