Kinetics of Blue Emission during Ultraviolet Insolation on Germanosilicate Optical Fiber

Abstract

The research aimed to study the kinetics of 400 nm blue emission during ultraviolet insolation on germanoslicate optical fiber, hydrogenated, and non-hydrogenataed. The hydrogenation of the fibers was carried out at room temperature under 150 atm for 4 weeks. The focused frequency doubled Argon laser ultraviolet beams were directed to the core of the unsheathed fiber. The light beams emerging from the end of the fiber were directed towards a detector. Kinetics the creation of defects in the hydrogenated fiber followed the power law for low fluency insolation. At high fluency, the formation of defects followed the principle of two photosensitization or serial steps
