Revolver optical fibers (RF) are special type of hollow-core optical fibers with negative
curvature of the core-cladding boundary and with cladding that is formed by a one ring layer …

Simple Summary We investigated the influence of modifying the voltage of an X-ray tube,
and therefore its photon energy spectrum, on the Total Ionizing Dose deposited in a single …

The majority of the credit for this book on nuclear-pumped lasers (NPLs) goes to its original
Russian authors. I (George H. Miley) became the contributing American co-author when I …

Nitrogen-doped silica-core fibre is discussed in the context of a technological basis for the
fabrication of Bragg gratings for sensors with enhanced temperature resistance up to 900 C …

This article presents a new prospect for radiation detection exploiting the high radiation
sensitivity of an ultra-low loss pure-silica core optical fiber (ULL-PSCF). This fiber exhibits …

Radiation-induced attenuation (RIA) is investigated in pure-silica-core optical fibers (PSFs)
upon their pulsed-X-ray irradiation. RIA at small post-pulse times (t≤ 0.001–0.1 s) is argued …

We report the first silica-based hollow-core microstructured fibre for the UV spectral range,
with a reflective cladding formed by a single ring of capillaries. The optical loss in the fibre at …

The evolution of Ytterbium 2 F 5/2 and Erbium 4 I 13/2 energy level lifetimes versus doses of
various radiation types (40 keV X-rays, 480 MeV protons, 1.2 MeV γ-rays and 6 MeV …

Three single-mode fibers have been drawn from each of four MCVD-made pure-silica-core F-
doped-silica-cladding preforms, the drawing parameters (temperature, speed, and tension) …

Samples in the form of transverse slices of rods and optical fiber preforms made from the
high-hydroxyl KU-1 and low-hydroxyl KS-4V silica by the plasma outside deposition (POD) …
