- Abstract
The formation mechanisms and properties of arc-induced gratings are intrinsically related to the temperature attained by the fiber during arc exposure. In this work, we present further results on the estimation of the fiber temperature based on the use of electrically insulated thermocouples. Computer simulations show that under typical arc discharge conditions, the fiber reaches steady-state thermal equilibrium in less than half a second, having a peak temperature of about 1350°C. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
