Objective Mid-infrared fiber lasers have attracted much attention due to high beam quality,high photoelectric conversion efficiency,excellent heat dissipation performance,and prospect of all-optical fibers.They have important applications in ranging,remote sensing,medical and health care,absorption spectroscopy,atmospheric communication,polymer materials processing,infrared countermeasures,and basic science.A fluoride fiber with a low phonon energy and a low transmission loss is usually chosen as the medium for producing and conducting a midinfrared laser.The structure of the space cavity mirror laser has such problems as low coupling efficiency,poor robustness,and easy deliquescence of fluoride fiber end faces.A fiber Bragg grating(FBG)based on fluoride fibers can be used to construct all-fiber lasers,which can effectively solve the above problems.However,the preparation of a mid-infrared fluoride fiber Bragg grating has not been reported in China.It is urgent to study the preparation technology of this key device.In this work,a mid-infrared FBG with a central wavelength of 2964.34 nm and a reflectivity of 99.27%is directly prepared in a fluoride fiber by femtosecond laser line-by-line direct writing method.This work is helpful to improve the operation stability,reliability and miniaturization of a mid-infrared fiber laser,and promote the application of corresponding mid-infrared fiber laser technologies.Methods In this paper,an FBG is prepared by femtosecond laser direct inscription method,and a 513 nm femtosecond laser is selected as the source.The fiber moves uniformly through a high precision three-dimensional displacement platform.The FBG testing device consists of a supercontinuum source,a coupled lens,and a spectrometer.The supercontinuum source(0.5-3.1μm)is coupled to a ZBLAN fiber with an FBG through a pair of coupling lenses(lens material of CaF_(2),focal length f=15 mm),and the end is directly connected to the spectrometer for transmission spectral testing.By comparing various preparation methods of
