Radiation-induced defects in glasses with high water content
TL;DR: In this paper, the radiation-protected characteristic of hydrosilicate glasses containing > 2 wt. % water is related to the post-irradiation reaction of H 2 O molecules with HC 1 and HC 2 hole centers to form free OH° radicals, observed for the first time in glasses.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Development of an impact detection technique using optical fiber sensors and neural networks
James S. Sirkis,J. K. Shaw,Timothy A. Berkoff,Alan D. Kersey,E. J. Friebele,Richard T. Jones +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe an ongoing effort to develop techniques capable of locating the position of space debris impacts and to quantify the strain energy absorbed by the space structure as a result of these impacts.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Contiguous fiber Bragg grating arrays produced on-line during fiber draw
TL;DR: In this paper, the reflectance of fiber Bragg gratings in one series was found to be polarization-dependent, lending further support to the previous model whereby the index change induced by the excimer laser occurs at the core-clad interface asymmetrically on one side of the core.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Cantilever-plate-deformation monitoring using wavelength-division multiplexed fiber Bragg grating sensors
R. T. Jones,Timothy A. Berkoff,David G. Bellemore,D. A. Early,James S. Sirkis,Martin A. Putnam,E. J. Friebele,Alan D. Kersey +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, an algorithm was developed to determine deformations of a cantilever honeycomb plate under arbitrary loading conditions using a set of sixteen fiber Bragg grating sensors, mounted on the plate so that all sensors measure strains along the clamped-free direction.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Ultrahigh-sensitivity strain sensing using fiber cavity etalons
E. J. Friebele,Martin A. Putnam,Alan D. Kersey,A.S. Greenblatt,Gregory P. Ruthven,Michael H. Krim,Kenneth S. Gottschalck +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, a single mode fiber as a cavity etalon was used for ultra-high sensitivity optical fiber sensor for microdynamics of materials and for monitoring the behavior of precision structures.
