2 Introductio Compared to copper cables, fiber optic systems have many advantages: - electromagnetic immunity no cross talk between adjacent fibers direct contact with high voltage electrical equipment and power lines / no ground loops of any kind - chemical stability impervious to corrosion / buried directly in most kinds of soil or exposed to corrosive atmospheres - low weight, low volume Communications through optical fibers much smaller than a wire / coaxial cable with similar information carrying capacity easier to handle and install, and uses less duct space - low attenuation, large bandwidth much higher data rates / ability to carry much more information and deliver it with greater fidelity than either copper wire or coaxial cable - ideal for secure and safe communication systems very difficult to tap but very easy to monitor / no possibility of a spark from a broken fiber. even in the most explosive atmospheres, there is no fire hazard IEEE ICC meeting, , St-Peterburg 2
3 IEEE ICC meeting, , St-Peterburg 3 Introductio Communications through optical fibers Improvement of fiber properties over the last decades - attenuation reduction presently: - strong increase of information-transmitting capacity, - good mechanical resistance lifetime > 25y; mainly mankind failures - telecom development large fiber production volumes stabilization of fiber features, standardizations, background (20 years of experience). - radiation-resistance improvement: see rest of the presentation.

Very important to well know the behavior of optical fibers under radiations.
7 Fiber use in radiative environment IEEE ICC meeting, , St-Peterburg 7 Behavior silica fibers in radiative environments: state of the art Many studies on this topic for 25 years quite a good knowledge ain critical point: attenuation increase (Radiation-Induced Attenuation or RIA) See next slide ther potential changes in fiber properties Mechanical properties no effect observed up to 10 MGy (SCK-CEN coll.). [Van Uffelen] Today, we are aware that it is very important to choose the most appropriate iber (the nature of which depends on the application), clearly define the acceptable loss udget (including the whole optic system) and the irradiation conditions. Preliminary γ-radiation tests give an idea of fiber radiation-resistance.

13 Fiber use in radiative environment adiation-induced Attenuation or RIA What we have learnt for 25 years mpact of dopants: P, Ge, F, B [Griscom, Friebele, Henschel, Van Uffelen, Berghmans, Kuhnhenn, Girard, Ott, Tortech] Do not use P and B as dopants (=> be wary of MCVD process!) Formation of Phosphorus-defects (P1, P2, P4 and POHC) that have strong absorption bands; one of them (P1-band) is located in the NIR => very bad for uses at 1310nm and 1550nm (i.e. std telecom λ). Remark: B can be used for pulsed irradiations (B improves the transient response at the expense of the permanent attenuation) At very high doses (~MGy), use pure silica core fibers instead of Ge-doped fibers 3.5MG Ge-doped fibers: formation of Ge-defects (GeE, Ge(1), Ge(2), GEC) Ge-doped SMFs PSCF: formation of silica defects (NBOHC, POR, SiE, STH), PSCF have smaller RIA at high doses, + lower sensitivity to T PSCF IEEE ICC meeting, , St-Peterburg 13 (extracted from Van Uffelen s PhD report - 20
14 Fiber use in radiative environment IEEE ICC meeting, , St-Peterburg 14 What we have learnt for 25 years adiation-induced Attenuation or RIA Impact of manufacturing conditions: coating, residual impurities, T f, OH and Cl contents [Deparis, Semjonov, Barnes, Henschel, Iino, Hanafusa, Griscom, Yamaguchi, Ott, etc.] Coating: can be critical at high doses, Polyimide, acrylate, hermetic coating Radiation can cause crosslinking resulting in microbending. Residual impurities: usually should be as low as possible, Alcaline, metallic impurities. T f (fictive temperature): should be reduced, Minimizing the fictive temperature of the glass allows to minimize the number of defects. OH and Cl content: depends on operating wavelength. First well define your operating conditions.

15 Fiber use in radiative environment IEEE ICC meeting, , St-Peterburg 15 What we have learnt for 25 years adiation-induced Attenuation or RIA Impact of radiation conditions: dose-rate, total dose, temperature, nature of radiation [Van Uffelen, Kyoto, Griscom, Henschel, West] RIA generally increases with increasing dose and dose-rate, but decreasing temperature. Take care of comparing only RIA curves that have been obtained exactly in the same conditions! Be aware that accelerated gamma-exposures (i.e. at higher dose-rates than the final operating dose rate) will lead to much higher RIA. However, such trials can be very useful for fiber comparison. Try to make the preliminary radiation-tests with conditions as similar as possible to the final in-situ radiation conditions. Nature of radiation (gamma, neutron, X, etc.) => seem to lead to quite comparable results (for same doses). Note that 60 Co sources are the easiest to use. Many radiation facilities (Fraunhofer Institute, INO, Tecnologica, CEA)
