A <strong>Fiber</strong> <strong>Bragg</strong> Grating is a l<strong>on</strong>gitudinal periodic variati<strong>on</strong> of the refractive index in the core of an optical fiber<br />

where n eff0 is the effective refractive index of the guided mode and Λ 0 is the FBG period<br />

Any effect able to modify the physical and geometrical features of the grating can lead to a shift in the <strong>Bragg</strong> wavelength<br />

A strain variati<strong>on</strong> shifts the <strong>Bragg</strong> wavelength through dilating or compressing the grating and changing<br />

the effective index (via the elasto-optic effect)<br />
