Abstract
We have measured the radiation-induced Bragg wavelength shift (BWS) of fiber Bragg grating (FBG) which was inscribed in Ge-doped core silica using a phase mask during irradiation up to a dose of 23 kGy and annealing effects after the gamma-exposure. For packaged FBG sensors, we observed the maximum radiation-induced BWS of about 91 pm during irradiation. Packaged FBG sensors also show higher radiation sensitivity above nearly a factor of two than non-packaged type sensor in the same condition.
