Paper Abstract
Gamma-radiation-induced photodarkening has been observed and characterized in a suite of Yb-doped, Er-doped
and Yb/Er co-doped optical fibers. Significant reduction in the optical transmission of the fibers under passive (not
pumped) conditions was observed for wavelengths across the infrared spectrum. In general, it was found that the co-doped
fiber tested showed the strongest radiation resistance whereas the Er-doped fibers tested exhibited the greatest
radiation sensitivity. A dependence on dose rate was also observed in all fibers.
