ABSTRACT:
A system for writing a Bragg grating point-by-point in an optical waveguide includes an illumination system for producing a primary beam. It further includes a diffraction grating to receive the primary beam and to produce a zero order secondary beam and two symmetrical secondary beams of higher order and a focusing optical device for focusing the secondary beams onto a writing area of the waveguide. The diffraction grating and the focusing optical device define an intensity function of writing in the area of the guide including a central peak and two secondary peaks spaced from the central peak by a distance equal to the pitch of the grating.
