Investigation of the Effect of Electron Beam Different Doses on Optical Dissipation in Fiber Optic

Authors

Abstract

Measurement of ionizing radiation in various fields, such as environmental safety, industrial detection processes, radiation protection and medical is very important. Radiation dosimetry plays an important role in determining the amount of energy absorbed and the effects of radiation. Recent optical fiber sensors have been shown to be radiation dosimeters. Our goal here is to investigate the effect of ionizing radiation on fiber optics. Thus, in this paper, the effect of electron beam radiation on the loss of light passing through the fiber optics after the end of radiation in the wavelength range of 1300-1550 nm is investigated. Optical fibers with doses of of 22 and 47 kGy were irradiated. All measurements were carried out at a temperature of 25 ± 2 ° C. The results show that the light dissipation of the fiber optically increases with the radiation dose and decreases with the passage of time after the end of radiation.
