Etude spectroscopique de fibres durcies pour un environnement radiatif sévère

Les nouveaux environnements radiatifs, comme LMJ, ITER, ILE/ELI, HiPER, réacteurs nucléaires des générations III+ et IV, nécessitent le développement de nouveaux composants pour le transport et le traitement des signaux. A cause de l’impossibilité d’utiliser les composants électroniques, la recherche est orientée vers les composants à fibres optiques comme vecteur d’information et aussi comme élément de diagnostic. Ils présentent de nombreux avantages, comme leur relative immunité électromagnétique, faible pois, large bande passante, mais les rayonnements gamma et les neutrons dégradent leur transmission. La dégradation dépend principalement de la composition de la fibre. Ainsi, il a été mo…

Influence of O2 loading pre-treatment on the radiation response of pure and fluorine doped silica-based optical fibers

International audience; We investigated the impact of an oxygen pre-loading on pure-silica-core or fluorine-doped-core fiber responses to high irradiation doses (up to 1 MGy(SiO2)). Oxygen enrichment was achieved through a diffusion-based technique and the long term presence of O2 molecules was confirmed by micro-Raman experiments. Online Radiation Induced Attenuation (RIA) experiments were carried out in both the pristine and the O2-loaded optical fibers to investigate the differences induced by this pre-treatment in the UV and visible ranges. Contrary to results recently published on the positive impact of O2 on infrared RIA, our results reveal a RIA increased with O2 presence. Data are a…
