Femtosecond laser point-by-point Bragg grating inscription in BDK-doped step-index PMMA optical fibers: erratum

Open Access Open Access

Abstract

An erratum is presented to correct the laser pulse energy applied on the fiber during grating fabrication in Opt. Lett. 47(2), 249 (2022) [CrossRef]  .

Errors concerning the laser pulse energies applied on the fiber during the grating fabrication process were found in [1]. The correct energies should be:

In the abstract, “The highest reflectivity of approximately 99% is obtained with a pulse energy of 11.2 nJ, showing a large refractive index modulation amplitude of 7.2 × 10−4.”

In the text, “It was found that the grating reflectivity increased as a function of E, and the highest reflectivity of 98.8% appeared for FBG 3 with 11.2 nJ.”

In the text, “Furthermore, for the highest pulse energy, 11.6 nJ, the nefff and $\Delta$nefff of FBG 4 were 1.50919 and 3.3 × 10−4, respectively, which were smaller than their counterparts for FBG3.”

The corrected Table 1 is shown here as well.
