Abstract:
New preliminary results obtained in the study of optical fiber properties, in order to develop a new radiation dosimeter sensitive to high energy photon beams, are presented in this paper. Optical fiber has been exposed at high energy photon beam generated by ALIN 10 linear accelerator. Exposure of the optical fibers to high energy photon beam has produced an increase in radiation induced attenuation (RIA), physical quantity used to exposure dose quantification. Attenuation in the optical fibers has been measured before, during and after irradiation, for two wavelength values. The experimental results show that the optical fiber has a good response to radiation exposure and, therefore, it can be useful in the achievement of this study purposes.
