In order to contribute to literature in an area where successful results are important in the process of further research in this area, until it can be obtained the necessary reproducibility of the process of writting gratings in micro-structured optical fibers, this work shows positive Bragg and long period gratings written in solid core photonic crystal fibers. The Bragg gratings are written in a 12 rings of holes around the core doped with a small amount of germanium micro-structured fiber. Written process of these gratings is made using ultraviolet excimer laser KrF at 248 nm and phase mask, and are obtained Bragg gratings with ≈ 11 dB reflectivity. Long period gratings, in turn, are written in micro-structured optical fibers made of pure silica 6 rings of air holes around the core. Using the method of point-to-point and infrared radiation CO2 laser are obtained gratings with consistent results within the literature, that is, gratings with a main mode of resonance and transmission loss of up to 17 dB. This work also detailed characterizations of long period gratings on mechanical stress and temperature variation, emphasizing the repeatability of both tests for more reliable results. Sensitivity to mechanical stress were obtained between −0, 85 pm/με and −6, 3 pm/με. More, sensitivities to temperature variation were equal to −18, 4 pm/◦ C and −19, 6 pm/◦ C.
