Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0048025A1] An optical grating structure formed on a substrate material, comprises a plurality of grating elements (10) arranged to form a distributed series (10). Each grating element except the first in the series is spaced from the previous in the series. Each grating element defines first and second reflective discontinuities (50, 52), the first discontinuity (50) being arranged for receiving an optical signal, and for guiding that signal to the second discontinuity (52).
