摘要：
In this letter, we investigate the inscription of fiber Bragg gratings in the visible spectral range using deep ultraviolet femtosecond laser exposure and two-beam interferometry. The properties of first-order reflection gratings and third-order gratings for use in the visible wavelength range are compared. Stronger gratings have been achieved for first-order reflecting Bragg gratings compared with third-order gratings. We demonstrate a fiber Bragg grating with a grating period of 226 nm and a filtering efficiency of more than 30 dB.
