Neutron, Gamma-Ray and Pulsed X-Ray Radiation-Induced Effects on Multimode Silica-Based Optical Fibers
Abstract
We study the mechanisms induced by pulsed X-rays (~1 MeV), gamma-rays (~1 MeV) and 14 MeV neutrons in graded-index optical fibers through spectral measurements (300-1100 nm) of their radiation-induced attenuation.
