  • Abstract
    Large refractive index modulations have been induced in a wet tin-phosphosilicate fibre under KrF excimer laser illumination. Comparison with dry and loaded tin-phosphosilicate fibres show that considerable photosensitivity increase can be achieved without any burdensome loss increase.
