    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method and device for manufacturing an optical fiber plug grating which is continuously chirped. SOLUTION: The continuously chirped optical fiber plug grating is made by writing-in the plug grating on an optical fiber by using a phase mask continuously chirped. The chirped phase mask is made by exposing a mask substrate 23 coated with a photoresist to two interference beams 24, 25 in which one of beams is a colimated beam and another is a beam reflected at a smoothly curved mirror 26. The optical fiber grating has a broadened band width and an uniform dispersion delay characteristic which is effective against dispersion compensation in high-degree communication application.
