T1  - Towards on-line radiation monitoring with perfluorinated polymer optical fibers
N2  - Over the last decades, ionizing radiation has been gaining importance in various fields outside the nuclear industry. Among available dosimetry techniques, optical fiber‑based dosimeters (OFDs) offer numerous advantages such as electromagnetic immunity, small dimensions and possibility of remote and real time monitoring. Monitoring of radiation‑induced attenuation (RIA) of the fiber is one of the most straightforward OFD techniques.
Compared to silica fibers, large‑diameter multi-mode (MM) polymer optical fibers (POFs) are easy to handle, allow for more economical connectorization and have better biocompatibility. Therefore they may yield cheaper, user-friendlier monitoring systems. In this work, feasibility of RIA-based radiation monitoring with highly sensitive perfluorinated (PF) POFs has been investigated.
