Abstract
The emergence of UV-written fiber gratings, both short and long period, as a reliable fiber technology has revolutionized the field of active fiber devices. The advantageous properties of spectral selectivity, low insertion loss, and component ruggedness have made devices possible that would not be viable without their use. The use of fiber gratings in conjunction with erbium-doped fiber amplifiers (EDFAs), fiber lasers, and with semiconductor diode lasers is reviewed.Keywords
