Abstract
A modulator assembly that excites longitudinal vibrations in a short (19 cm) silica fiber segment is described. A physical model of the modulator assembly is used to theoretically predict the behavior of longitudinal vibrations in the fiber segment. The longitudinal vibrations are experimentally characterized using an intrinsic fiber Bragg grating. Experimental results are compared to theoretical predictions.
