17、NAL ELECTROTECHNICAL COMMISSION _ OPTICAL FIBRES GUIDANCE FOR NUCLEAR RADIATION TESTS FOREWORD 1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to

18、 promote international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Gu

19、ides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non- governmental organizations liaising with the IE

20、C also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations. 2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as

21、possible, an international consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all interested IEC National Committees. 3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National Committees in that sense

22、. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any misinterpretation by any end user. 4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees under

23、take to apply IEC Publications transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter. 5) IEC itself does not provide any atte

24、station of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any services carried out by independent certification bodies. 6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition

25、of this publication. 7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct

26、or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC Publications. 8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is indispensable

27、 for the correct application of this publication. 9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. The main task of IEC technical committees

28、 is to prepare International Standards. However, a technical committee may propose the publication of a technical report when it has collected data of a different kind from that which is normally published as an International Standard, for example “state of the art“. IEC 62283, which is a technical

29、report, has been prepared by subcommittee 86A: Fibres and cables, of IEC technical committee 86: Fibre optics. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition of IEC/TR 62283 published in 2003 and constitutes a technical revision. The main changes with respect to the previous edition are

30、listed below: Clause 5 now also covers Industrial environment. a new Clause 9 has been added to deal with “Measurement techniques and quality assurance of attenuation measurements“. TR 62283 IEC:2010(E) 5 The text of this technical report is based on the following documents: Enquiry draft Report on

31、voting 86A/1312/DTR 86A/1327/RVC Full information on the voting for the approval of this technical report can be found in the report on voting indicated in the above table. This publication has been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The committee has decided that the content

32、s of this publication will remain unchanged until the stability date indicated on the IEC web site under “http:/webstore.iec.ch“ in the data related to the specific publication. At this date, the publication will be reconfirmed, withdrawn, replaced by a revised edition, or amended. A bilingual versi

33、on of this publication may be issued at a later date. 6 TR 62283 IEC:2010(E) INTRODUCTION In order to restrict the test method of IEC 60793-1-54, Optical fibres Part 1-54: Measure- ment methods and test procedures Gamma irradiation to a clear, concise listing of instructions, the background knowledg

34、e that is necessary to perform correct, relevant and expressive irradiation tests as well as to limit measurement uncertainty is presented here separately as a “guidance document“. TR 62283 IEC:2010(E) 7 OPTICAL FIBRES GUIDANCE FOR NUCLEAR RADIATION TESTS 1 Scope This technical report gives a short

35、summary of the radiation exposure in certain environments and applications and the different radiation effects on fibres. It also describes the most important radiation effect, i.e. the increase of transmission loss, and its strong dependence on a variety of fibre properties and test conditions. The

36、se dependencies need to be known in order to perform appropriate tests for each specific application as well as to understand, compare and qualify the test results obtained at different laboratories when performed according to IEC 60793-1-54, Optical fibres Part 1-54: Measurement methods and test pr

39、cedures Gamma irradiation 3 Radiation units, dose calculation The interaction of radiation with matter depends on charge, mass and energy in the case of particle radiation (for example, electrons, protons, neutrons, alphas and heavy ions) and on energy in the case of electromagnetic radiation such a

40、s X-rays or gamma quanta. The interaction causes an energy transfer to the respective matter. This leads to ionization and warming up. Additionally structural damage in the material may occur at higher doses, leading to other effects such as changes of refractive index or mechanical properties. The

41、higher the radiations energy, the stronger its penetrability and the longer its range. The energy unit is the electron Volt (eV). Usual radiation energies in natural or technical environments range from tens of keV (medical X-rays) to several MeV (fission or fusion reactors and nuclear weapons). Cur

42、rent energies at high-energy physics accelerators vary depending on the type of colliding particles. The highest energy for electron-positron collisions is 100 GeV per beam. For proton-proton collisions the energy per beam is 1 TeV. The new “Large Hadron Collider“ (LHC) at CERN uses beams with an en

43、ergy of 7 TeV. In addition, there are quite a number of other accelerators which operate between these limits. Note that these energies refer to the colliding particles. The secondary particles, i.e. the ones likely to affect fibres, have much lower energies. The energy deposited by ionizing radiati

44、on in matter is called “energy dose“ (or absorbed dose). The old unit is rad, (rd or rad); 1 rad = 100 erg/g (1 erg = 10 7J) but should not be used anymore. The SI unit is the Gray Gy; 1 Gy = 1 J/kg = 100 rad. 8 TR 62283 IEC:2010(E) Some dosimeter types measure the charge released in a gas (for exam

45、ple, ionization chambers). This was used to define another type of dose, the “ion dose“. The ion dose unit is the rntgen (non-SI unit), R; 1 R = 2,58 10 4C/kg, with C = charge unit (coulomb). Conversion of ion dose, D, to energy dose, D, can be performed for 60 Co gamma rays (about 1,2 MeV) by D R G

46、y(air) 0,879 D = (1) If this unit is used, the values of relevant quantities shall be given in terms of SI units first followed by these non-SI units in parentheses. The energy transfer of gammas and X-rays to matter depends on their energy as well as on the irradiated material. Therefore, the mater

47、ial has to be added to the dose unit (for example Gy(Si), rad(SiO 2 ), Gy(air) etc.), and the dose D(d) measured with a dosimeter material d (for example, air) can differ significantly from the dose D(m) deposited in the investigated material m (for example, Si, SiO 2 , InGaAs etc.). The dose ratio

48、between both materials D(m) is given by the ratio of their “photon mass energy absorption coefficient“ en /: ) d ( D ) / ( ) / ( ) m ( D d en m en = (2) The en /-values can differ significantly, especially for materials of high and low atomic number at energies 300 keV. They are tabulated for variou

49、s elements and compounds in reference 1 1 . The dose rate, i.e. the dose exposition per time, should be given in units of Gy/h, kGy/h, or Gy/s. The intensity of particle radiation is usually characterized by the fluence . The unit is particles/cm 2or only cm 2 . The dose of charged particles (in a certain material depth) can be calculated from their fluence and their (energy-dependent) energy loss per unit of
