Fiber-Optic Bragg Gratings for Temperature and Pressure Measurements in Isotope Production Targets for Nuclear Medicine

A Bragg grating inscribed into an inorganic optical fiber was tested in proton and neutron fields up to doses of 472 Gy. Observation showed that radiation had no effect on the performance of the Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) used as a gauge measuring temperature and pressure. The FBG sensor was subseque...
