Abstract

We study the origin of antisymmetric perturbation of the fiber in arc-induced long-period gratings that couple the core mode into the antisymmetric cladding modes. We demonstrate that this perturbation is caused by a temperature gradient in the fiber, which is induced, in turn, by a temperature gradient in the arc discharge.
