Abstract

A uniform fiber Bragg grating sensor is sketched and inspected by the finite-difference time-domain method in furtherance of obtaining ultimate transmission and reflection spectra by optimizing the FBG parameters like refractive index, grating height, grating width, wafer width, wafer length. The maximum transmission power spectrum is achieved as − 7 dB for the refractive index of 3.005, and the maximum reflection spectra are obtained as 6 dB for the grating height of 1 μm which is enhanced nine times than the precedent work. The proposed FBG is a simple, light-weight, low-cost uniform structure, and it offers high reflectivity and ease of handling. Therefore, it is highly useful in sensing and communication applications.
