Abstract (EN): The electric arc technique allows the inscription of long-period gratings (LPGs) virtually in all types of fibers, including non-photosensitive fibers, the case of non-Ge doped photonic crystal fibers being of particular interest. LPGs written in standard fibers using this technique have shown a high thermal stability. Also, the resistance to. - radiation of LPGs arc-induced in pure-silica-core fibers is being assessed and the achieved results are very promising. We have also demonstrated that the combination of arc-induced LPGs and UV-induced fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs) leads to sampled FBGs that are able to address sensing functionalities with enhanced performance. Therefore, as a result of their properties, gratings induced by arc-discharges can find a wide range of applications in optical communications as well as in fiber sensing.
