Dose-Rate Dependence of Fiber Bragg Gratings' Responses

The radiation effects induced on fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs) are the subject of several studies, because they can be used as sensors for several applications in radiative environments. Even if the dose-rate spans a large range from an application to another, until now only one study has been performed on the dose-rate dependence of the response of a particular grating. This work is focused on this dependence for a classical grating in a larger dose-rate range.
