Abstract

A fiber Bragg grating has been inscribed in a 100-µm diameter sapphire optical fiber with the phase mask technique and a fs-laser emitting at 800 nm. The grating was placed inside a sealed alumina capillary to protect the fiber from the environment. Then the fiber was set inside an oven and cycled up 7 times to a maximum temperature of 1500°C during 2 h. We observed that after two cycles, the grating is stabilized and no more hysteresis on the Bragg wavelength is observed. However, the temperature uncertainty is as high as 15°C and is principally due to modal interference. Then the grating is submitted to a 3-day annealing and two annealing successive 4-day annealing – for a total of eleven days – at a temperature of 1500°C. During this treatment, the grating amplitude remained constant and the Bragg wavelength showed no significant drift. As a conclusion, the packaged grating did not exhibit any erasure during these annealing experiments and perform reliable temperature measurement up to 1500°C.
