Abstract
The spectral, interferometric, and polarization properties of mode-coupling fiber gratings under strain are described. The grating is formed by photosensitivity that uses modal interference in the two-mode fiber. Theoretical and experimental results show the possibilities of using the fiber grating for optical switches, tunable filters, interferometric sensors, and polarizers.
