Radiation-resistant WDM Optical Link for Thermonuclear Fusion Reactor Instrumentation
The future International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) is a complex installation that will require permanent monitoring and frequent maintenance operations. The high-gamma dose rates, the high neutron fluence and other radiological hazards call for the use of remotehandled equipment. The management of heavy umbilicals connecting the control systems with the remote tools is therefore...
متن کاملIonising radiation damage of optical fibre data link components in the CMS Inner Tracker
Results are presented from cobalt-60 photon irradiations of multi-quantum well (MQW) modulators (to ~20Mrad) and optical fibres (to ~30Mrad). These components form part of the optical data-link for transfer of signals from the silicon microstrip and MSGC elements in CMS. Measurements of the reflectivity of the modulators at different bias voltages were made before and after irradiation showing ...
متن کاملEvaluation of PMMA optical fibres as gamma dosimeters for nuclear applications
Fibre optic radiation monitors have promising applications in the nuclear industry. We investigate the possible use of PMMA plastic optical fibres as on-line dosimeters, based on the measurement of the attenuation induced by the ionising gamma radiation. A novel interrogation scheme is proposed for real-time dosimetry applications. This technique involves using spectral measurement techniques w...

متن کاملRadiation-tolerance qualification for maintenance tasks in the future fusion reactor: the FBG radiation tolerance assessment as case study
The radiation-tolerance assessment of components is required before their use in instrumentation links for the future International thermonuclear fusion reactor (ITER). In this paper, we will detail our methodology to find the most suitable components with regard to the specific ITER requirements and to evaluate the radiation-tolerance of components for the ITER instrumentation links. Our appro...
