The radiation tolerance of specific optical fibres exposed to 650 kGy(Si) of ionizing radiation

The LHC upgrade will extensively increase the area of silicon detectors used in the ATLAS experiment and require substantial changes to the readout system of both the ATLAS and CMS experiments. The two experiments are expected to use optical systems for part of the data and control paths which must...

description The LHC upgrade will extensively increase the area of silicon detectors used in the ATLAS experiment and require substantial changes to the readout system of both the ATLAS and CMS experiments. The two experiments are expected to use optical systems for part of the data and control paths which must withstand levels of radiation equivalent to a dose of approximately 400 kGy(Si) at 30 cm from the collision region (including a safety factor of 1.5). As part of the search for acceptably radiation hard optical fibres, four Graded Index multimode (GRIN) optical fibres and one single-mode (SM) fibre were tested to 650 kGy(Si) equivalent dose. One of the GRIN fibres was also tested at 5 different dose rates, in order to understand the dose rate effects. These tests have validated the radiation tolerance of a single-mode fibre and two multimode fibres for use at the SLHC for warm operation. Some interesting features of the time dependence of the fibre radiation damage and future plans are discussed. © 2009 IOP Publishing Ltd and SISSA.
