Abstract

We have studied the effects of radiation on the performance characteristics of optical fibers. These fibers were exposed to radiation of a continuous electron beam of the Lehigh University Radiation Facility. Results of light transmission as a function of radiation dose for various fiber configurations, as well as anneal results, are presented.
