Abstract :
An analytic approach to calculate the radiation pattern (including the wavelength dependence, azimuthal distribution, and polarization dependence) of tilted fiber phase gratings using the volume current method (VCM) is introduced in this paper. Results for both uniform and apodized fiber gratings are derived and discussed, and a brief comparison to experimental measurements from practical devices is also made
