In this paper, poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride)(PDDA)/poly(sodium styrene sulfonate)(PSS) nanomembranes were deposited on the surface of long-period fiber gratings (LPFG) using the electrostatic layer-by-layer (LBL) assembly method, and the effect of NaCl on the modulation of LPFG double peaks by PDDA/PSS nanomembranes was investigated. The principle behind the emergence of double peaks was first explored using coupled mode theory, revealing that changes in the mode effective refractive index(RI) occur as the number of nanomembrane layers increases. The experimental results showed that under the conditions of PDDA with NaCl/PSS without NaCl and PDDA without NaCl/PSS with NaCl, double peaks do not appear in the spectra of LPFG as the number of thin film layers increases.
