A simple and practical method of estimating reflectivity and refractive-index modulation is reported when writing fiber Bragg grating (FBG) into silica fiber core based on 800 nm femtosecond laser pulses and a phase mask. By monitoring and recording the variation of the fiber laser output power, the reflectivity and refractive-index modulation are estimated theoretically and experimentally. The reflectivity of FBG is approximate 96.4%, and the refractive-index modulation is about 1.2×10-3. When the FBG is used as a linear cavity mirror, 15.5 W of output power is obtained under an incident pump power of 51.6 W, corresponding to a slop efficiency of 37.9%. A beam factor of M2=1.4 at an output power of 15 W is measured by using the knife-edge method.
