| Abstract: | A 40-mm-long fiber Bragg grating with both tunable chirp and central wavelength is used to recompress pulses broadened by transmission through 10.0 km of non-dispersion-shifted fiber at 1.542 μm. 4.0-ps transform-limited pulses having an optical bandwidth of greater than 1 nm were broadened to 230 ps, and recompressed to 12 ps, showing compensation of 95% of the fiber dispersion |
