A radiation–temperature coupling model of the optical fiber attenuation spectrum in the Ge/P co-doped fiber

Abstract

A radiation–temperature coupling model of optical fiber attenuation spectrum has been developed. The spectrum in Ge/P co-doped fiber ranging from 800 nm–1600 nm at different temperatures and doses was measured and decomposed according to the configurational coordinate model based on which the power-law model was employed to predict the intensity of the color center absorption band at different doses. And the fiber loss in space was predicted by the model. This work will benefit the application of fibers in a complicated radiation environment.
