Mechanisms and Implementation of Thermo-Optical Annealing in Silica Fiber Sensors for Radiation-Induced Attenuation Mitigation by Legoupil, Aurelien Y. M.

“…We design a white light absorption spectroscopy setup with in-situ irradiation and optical annealing, working at liquid nitrogen temperature and different post-irradiation warm-up rates. For the pure silica core and F-doped cladding fibers studied, the RIA spectrum obtained is decomposed into known radiation-induced defect absorption bands, highlighting the key role of self-trapped holes in RIA at telecommunication wavelengths. …”
