Abstract :
A regenerated fibre Bragg grating in excess of 99% rejection in transmission within germanosilicate optical fibre is reported for the first time. The regenerated grating appears at longer wavelengths to the seed grating during growth and continues growing towards longer wavelengths consistent with positive index change.
