We evaluate the temperature effect on the X-ray radiation-induced luminescence (RIL) of differently doped silica fibers obtained via the sol-gel route. Previous investigations showed that these optical materials exhibit interesting dosimetry properties, such as very good detection capabilities and linear response over a large range of dose rate.

Hubert Curien, St. Etienne) ; Francesca, Diego Di (CERN) ; Jean-Christophe, Malapert (CNES, Toulouse) ; Kerboub, Nourdine (CNES, Toulouse) ; Marot, Lourdes Oro ; Ricci, Daniel (CERN) et al.
LUMINA, a fiber-based dosimeter, exploiting the radiation induced attenuation (RIA) phenomenon, has been operational inside the International Space Station (ISS) since August 2021. We discuss in this article its capability to detect the possible signatures of recent solar particle events (SPEs) through the related increase of the dose rate (DR) radiation level within the ISS.

This article presents a new prospect for radiation detection exploiting the high radiation sensitivity of an ultralow-loss pure-silica core optical fiber (ULL-PSCF). This fiber exhibits very high transient X-ray radiation-induced attenuation (RIA) levels from UV to IR during irradiation, while its RIA quickly returns to a low permanent level after irradiation.

/ Weninger, Luca (Lab. Hubert Curien, St. Etienne) ; Campanella, Cosimo (Lab. Hubert Curien, St. Etienne) ; Morana, Adriana (Lab. Hubert Curien, St. Etienne) ; Fricano, Fiammetta (Lab.

We systematically explore the suitability of two radiation-sensitive multimode optical fibers (OFs) with either P or GeP-doped cores to serve as the sensing elements in point or distributed dosimeters. To this end, we measured the dependences of their spectral radiation-induced attenuation (RIA) in the visible and near-infrared (near-IR) domain (400–2100 nm) up to total ionizing dose (TID) of 5 kGy(SiO2) while varying the irradiation temperature from −80 °C to +80 °C and the dose rate between 1 mGy(SiO2)/s and 10 Gy(SiO2)/s.

The optical-fiber-based dosimeter of the LUMINA project was deployed in August 2021 in the International Space Station in the framework of the Alpha mission. The sensing elements of the dosimeter are P-doped optical fibers, which were proven to be excellent candidates for dosimetry applications. [...]

The potential of fiber-based sensors to monitor the fluence of atmospheric neutrons is evaluated through accelerated tests at the TRIUMF Neutron Facility (TNF) (BC, Canada), offering a flux approximatively 10$^9$ higher than the reference spectrum observed under standard conditions in New York City, USA. The radiation-induced attenuation (RIA) at 1625 nm of a phosphorus-doped radiation sensitive optical fiber is shown to linearly increase with neutron fluence, allowing an in situ and easy monitoring of the neutron flux and fluence at this facility.

We report the results of several complementary radiation tests to qualify and calibrate a highly radiation sensitive Single-Mode (SM) Optical Fiber (OF) for distributed dosimetry application at CERN. The Radiation Induced Attenuation (RIA) is the physical phenomenon used to evaluate the Total Ionizing Dose (TID) received by the OF sensor. [...]
