Silica-based optical fibers, fiber-based devices and optical fiber sensors are today
integrated in a variety of harsh environments associated with radiation constraints. Under …

In this topical review, the recent progress on radiation-hardened fiber-based technologies is
detailed, focusing on examples for space applications. In the first part of the review, we …

In the upcoming space revolutions aiming at the implementation of automated, smart, and
self-aware crewless vehicles and reusable spacecraft, sensors play a significant role in the …

Undoped-silica-core F-doped-silica-cladding optical fibers (“undoped fibers”) are an
important fiber type for applications requiring resistance to ionizing radiation (eg, the nuclear …

Single-mode optical fibres (SMFs) are required for ITER in-vessel applications as transport
fibres to deliver the signal at wavelength λ= 1.55 µm from/to optical fibre sensors. The paper …

Radiation-induced attenuation (RIA) at λ= 1.55 μm is studied in polarization-maintaining
(PM) pure-silica-core optical fibers of the Panda-type under γ-irradiation and upon pulsed-X …

Radiation-induced attenuation (RIA) in undoped-silica-core optical fibers, of which the
preform cores are synthesized in high O_2 excess conditions in the vapor–gas mixture …

Radiation-induced attenuation (RIA) is investigated in pure-silica-core optical fibers (PSFs)
upon their pulsed-X-ray irradiation. RIA at small post-pulse times (t≤ 0.001–0.1 s) is argued …

Radiation-induced absorption (RIA) in a pure-silica fiber (PSF) was investigated at four
wavelengths λ= 659, 828, 1310, and 1550 nm after seven X-ray pulses on the scale 1 μs–2 …

Radiation-induced attenuation (RIA) spectra (700–1700 nm) in a pure-silica-core PANDA
fiber were measured during and after γ-irradiation at room temperature (RT),− 60° C, and …
