Radiation Response of Ce-Doped Phosphosilicate Optical Fibers

International audience; We report an experimental study of the radiation effects on silica-based multimode optical fibers (OFs) either doped with Phosphorus or with Phosphorus and Cerium. Online Radiation-Induced-Absorption (RIA) measurements were performed in the UV-visible spectral domain under 10 keV X-ray Irradiation. Optical Absorption (OA) in the Near Infrared Region (NIR) and Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) measurements were also performed on γ-irradiated OFs.
