7 AstroGain TM EDF for space applications Erbium-doped fiber (EDF) Proprietary trivalent core matrix Designed to accelerate photo-annealing recovery of radiation damage Targets photo-annealing of point defects using 980nm optical pump source photon energies. Courtesy NASA/JPL-Caltech - No need for secondary optical source at higher photon energy. Other authors suggest use of 532nm photo-anneal source
8 PM fiber tests
9 Radiating the Samples 60 Co Source Dose rate varied by distance from source Gy/hr Radiation dose rate within 10% tolerance level
10 RIA (db/km) Standard HB-G (non-rt) vs HB-G RT samples Non-RT samples radiated at a dose rate of 50Gy/hr up to a total dose of 200Gy. P-free RT samples also tested to 200Gy, and to higher levels ,1 0,12 0,14 0,16 0,18 0,2 0,22 0,24 NA Phosphorus Rad Tolerant - No Phosphorus
11 Higher dose HB1500G-RT samples 3 HB1500G-RT samples radiated at a dose rate of 250Gy/hr up to a total dose of 5000Gy.
12 AstroGain EDF tests
13 AstroGain Photo-annealing Setup (EDFA) 3 Samples with differing trivalent compositions (A-1, A-2 & A-3). radiated at 50Gy/hr to a total dose of 200Gy. Post-radiation, fixed 80dB absorption lengths of each sample placed into EDFA setup 175mW pump power at 974nm results in photo-annealing effect EDFA output power monitored for 7 day photo-annealing period. RIA and spectra re-measured post photo-annealing. Input Signal WDM FUT WDM O/P Pump Res. Pump
14 Photo-annealing Worst case test of photo-annealing response: Highly accelerated dose rate Many years of accumulated dose in 4 hours All radiation damage is done before photo-annealing is performed Total accumulated dose higher than expected in orbit Equivalent to 30 years in GEO Or 60 years in LEO

23 Conclusions Phosphorous free, HB-G fibers have shown two orders of magnitude improvement over the radiation resistance of standard PM fibers. After 5000Gy effective dose, attenuation of Fibercore HB1500G-RT: < 9dB/km at 1310nm < 7dB/km at 1550nm Equivalent to an overall RIA of: db/km/krad at 1550nm db/km/krad at 1310nm. Attenuation consistently low across the full operation wavelength range.
24 Conclusions AstroGain TM has demonstrated effective photo-annealing of radiation damage that can be expected in a space environment. using only a 980nm pump in a standard EDFA configuration Results suggest over a 20 year mission lifetime: Efficiency maintained Spectral performance maintained For discontinuous use: Proprietary trivalent dopant content of AstroGain TM can be fine-tuned to optimise performance. Effective photo-annealing under standard EDFA configuration Saves the need for costly secondary pump sources Mass budget Power consumption Reliability
