Comparing cross talk in doped scintillating-fiber bundles.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A simple experimental technique to measure and compare cross talk in fiber bundles designed for high-energy-particle-tracking systems in colliders is described. Each bundle is composed of individual step-index, multimode fibers that are doped with a scintillating material at a given concentration. Results for two different scintillators doped at two different concentrations are included to demonstrate the validity and the potential of the technique.

Characterization of a multianode photomultiplier tube for use with scintillating fibers to detect gamma rays
The performance of a multianode photomultiplier tube (MAPMT) with 64 anodes coupled to scintillating fibers has been examined. Such a detector system can be used in a pairproduction gamma-ray telescope as well as in other applications. The characteristics of these tubes (Hamamatsu R5900-00-M64) are presented including single photoelectron sensitivity, electrical and optical cross-talk, and dark...
متن کاملCharacterization and modelling of inter-core coupling in coherent fiber bundles.
Recent developments in optical endomicroscopy (OEM) and associated fluorescent SmartProbes present a need for sensitive imaging with high detection performance. Inter-core coupling within coherent fiber bundles is a well recognized limitation, affecting the technology's imaging capabilities. Fiber cross coupling has been studied both experimentally and within a theoretical framework (coupled mo...

UNLABELLED Atherosclerosis underlies coronary artery disease, the leading cause of death in the United States and worldwide. Detection of coronary plaque inflammation remains challenging. In this study, we developed a scintillating balloon-enabled fiber-optic radionuclide imaging (SBRI) system to improve the sensitivity and resolution of plaque imaging using (18)F-FDG, a marker of vascular infl...
متن کاملDemonstration of a multichannel optical interconnection by use of imaging fiber bundles butt coupled to optoelectronic circuits.
Through five experiments, we demonstrate and characterize the basic functionality of imaging fiber bundles for optoelectronic chip-level interconnections. We demonstrate the transmission of spot arrays with spot sizes and a spot pitch roughly equal to 2 and 4 times the core pitch, respectively. We show that optoelectronic integrated circuits, including sources and detectors, can be butt coupled...
متن کاملParametric Analysis of Fiber Non-Linearity in Optical systems
AbstractWith the advent of technology Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) is always an area of interest in the field of optical communication. When combined with Erbium Doped Fiber Amplifier (EDFA), it provides high data transmission rate and low attenuation. But due to fiber non-linearity such as Self Phase Modulation (SPM) and Cross Phase Modulation (XPM) the system performance has degrade...
