M. Körfer, DESY Salzau Light Guide Systems DosimeterBeam Loss Powermeter OTDR Cerenkov RadiationLight Attenuation Photomultiplier Properties of fibers MM GI Fiber Phosphor-Doping Small annealing MM SI Fiber No Doping Large diameter Detectors Measurement System

M. Körfer, DESY Salzau Dosimeter Fiber: Optical fibers show (wavelength-dependent) a nearly linear increase of attenuation after irradiation with ionizing radiation independent from dose-rate and -source

M. Körfer, DESY Salzau OTDR Goal: Continuous Online-Measurement of the local dose (e.g. along the LINAC) Radiation creates color-centers in fiber  Measurement of the attenuation with OTDR -- short Laser pulse enters the light guide -- Rayleigh Scattering reflects light back to detector -- Color centers absorb backscattered light -- Absorption is proportional to the dose

M. Körfer, DESY Salzau OTDR Measurement OTDR: Tektronix TFP2A Laser pulse duration: 3 ns (FWHM) at 850 nm  local resolution 0.6 m Optical Fiber : FiberCore N GA Linear attenuation up to 2000 Gy TTF-fiber length < 300 m  no laser pulse widening  due to the fiber bandwidth the local resolution along the accelerator is constant Dynamic range about > nm  limitation of the max. dose and length Installation of fibers along the vacuum chamber to get fast results

M. Körfer, DESY Salzau Results - OTDR Time period 17 Day’s in 11/2000 Beam direction from the right dynamic range limits observation of max. dose and max. length  noisy signal in the injector region (INJ) Dose budget: Bunch compressor BC2 up to 450 Gy temp. Beam-line ACC3 up to 200 Gy above 180 m the noise starts resolution < 3 Gy (noise limit)

M. Körfer, DESY Salzau Powermeter Goal: Precise, sensitive and fast online-dosimetry -- light from Laser LED enters the light guide -- continuous measurement of the light power (attenuation) -- position of sensor defines spatial resolution Radiation creates color-centers in fiber  Measurement of the attenuation with Powermeter calibration

M. Körfer, DESY Salzau Cerenkov Radiation Goal: Fast beam loss monitor with spatial resolution -- ionizing radiation creates Cerenkov light in ps-range -- Time difference between external bunch trigger and light pulse defines position -- Broadband detector (  GHz), high sensitivity, low noise => PMT, APD -- Photon-wavelength 200 nm -700 nm (I ~ 1/ 3 ) -- Integral of light pulse is proportional to dose Ext. Trigger
