초록

본 논문에서는 격자 공정 중에 KrF 엑시머 UV 레이저 노출시간에 따른 광섬유 브래그 격자의 $Co^{60}$ 감마방사선 영향을 연구하였다. 광섬유 브래그 격자는 게르마늄이 첨가된 일반 광섬유를 이용하였으며, UV KrF 엑시머 레이저 노출시간(30, 60, 90, 120초)을 달리하여 제작하였다. 제작된 광섬유 브래그 격자에 106 Gy/min 선량률로 총 선량 34.3 kGy 감마선을 조사한 후 방사선에 의한 온도감도 계수와 브래그 파장 변화를 분석하였다. 실험결과를 통하여, 격자 공정을 위한 UV 레이저 노출시간이 광섬유 브래그 격자의 방사선 민감도에 큰 영향을 줄 수 있다는 것을 확인하였다. 레이저 노출조건 변화에 따른 방사선에 의한 광섬유 브래그 파장의 변화는 최대 50 % 이상의 차이를 보였다.

We studied the effect of $Co^{60}$ gamma-radiation on the fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs) by irradiation time of UV Krypton fluoride (KrF) excimer laser among grating processing parameters. The FBGs were fabricated in a different UV laser irradiation time at 30, 60, 90, and 120 seconds using the same commercial Ge-doped silica core fiber (SMF-28e). It was exposed to gamma-radiation up to a high dose of 34.3 kGy at the dose rate of 106 Gy/min, and then it was analyzed radiation effects by measuring the radiation-induced change in the temperature sensitivity coefficient and Bragg wavelength shift. According to the experimental results, We confirmed that the UV laser irradiation period for grating inscription has a highly effect on the radiation sensitivity of the FBGs. The radiation-induced Bragg wavelength shift by the change of laser irradiation conditions showed a difference more than about 50 %.
