Abstract
A superfluorescent fiber source (SFS) with the low Ge-doped and Er/Ce codoped photonic crystal fiber (ECPCF) is proposed to improve the radiation resistance of SFS. The radiation effects of SFSs for an Er/Ce codoped conventional fiber (ECF) and a low Ge-doped and ECPCF are investigated in a Co60 gamma-ray environment. Results show that the low Ge-doped photonic crystal fiber exhibits better radiation tolerance than its counterpart in the Er/Ce codoped fibers, and the attenuation of the power of ECPCF-SFS is significantly smaller than that of ECF-SFS. In addition, the radiation-induced spectral variation of ECPCF-SFS with increased radiation dose is less than that of ECF-SFS. ECPCF-SFS simultaneously exhibits higher recovery performance than ECF-SFS.
