Abstract
Erbium-doped fiber (EDF), bismuth-erbium co-doped fiber (BEDF) without bismuth deposited bismuth on the fiber surface (BEDF1), and BEDF with bismuth deposited on the fiber surface (BEDF2) were fabricated. Leveraging the Geant4 toolkit, the theoretical models of BEDFs are established. When the thickness of the bismuth deposited layer is $5~\mu $ m, the energy deposited in the core is reduced by 49.66% (5.91 MeV). The energy deposited in the core is reduced by 19.7% (1.06 MeV) when Bi3+ ions’ concentration is 10 wt%. EDF, BEDF1, and BEDF2 were irradiated with 0.3-, 0.5-, 0.8-, and 1.5-kGy doses of Co60 source. After radiation with 1.5 kGy, radiation-induced absorption (RIA) of BEDF2 at 1300 nm is 20.31% (1.01 dB/m) lower than that of BEDF1. The radiation induced gain variation (RIGV) and fluorescence lifetime of EDF are decreased with the increase in irradiation dose, while the RIGV and lifetime of BEDF1 and BEDF2 both increased initially and then decreased linearly. The normalized gain of BEDF2 is increased by up to 1.08 dB/m after 0.5-kGy radiation. Bismuth ions in the fiber core improve the radiation resistance of the fiber, and those deposited on the fiber surface further improve the radiation resistance. The research results have reference value and application potential in radiation environment detection and space satellite positioning.
期刊介绍:
The IEEE Transactions on Nuclear Science is a publication of the IEEE Nuclear and Plasma Sciences Society. It is viewed as the primary source of technical information in many of the areas it covers. As judged by JCR impact factor, TNS consistently ranks in the top five journals in the category of Nuclear Science & Technology. It has one of the higher immediacy indices, indicating that the information it publishes is viewed as timely, and has a relatively long citation half-life, indicating that the published information also is viewed as valuable for a number of years.
The IEEE Transactions on Nuclear Science is published bimonthly. Its scope includes all aspects of the theory and application of nuclear science and engineering. It focuses on instrumentation for the detection and measurement of ionizing radiation; particle accelerators and their controls; nuclear medicine and its application; effects of radiation on materials, components, and systems; reactor instrumentation and controls; and measurement of radiation in space.
