AB  - We present a calibration protocol to obtain the alignment factors of a 
      custom-made spectrometer and the nonlinear fitting function between the measured 
      CCD pixel domain and the wavelength domain to apply to the spectral-domain 
      optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) using fiber Bragg gratings. We have used 
      five gratings with different center wavelengths covering the broadband source 
      spectral range. All have a narrow spectral bandwidth (0.05 nm) and the same 
      reflectivity (92%) to calibrate and align the custom-made spectrometer. The 
      implemented SD-OCT system following the proposed protocol showed the alignment 
      factors as 44.37 deg incident angle, 53.11 deg diffraction angle, and 70.0-mm 
      focal length. The spectral resolution of 0.187 nm was recalculated from the 
      alignment factors.
