Reliable Lifetime Prediction for Passivated Fiber Bragg Gratings for Telecommunication Applications

This paper is dedicated to the lifetime prediction of Type I Fiber Bragg gratings (FBG) and to problems that happen when stabilization (also called passivation) conditions or the industrial conditioning procedure depart from ageing ones (e.g., presence of hydrogen during the passivation process). Fo...
