DEVICE FOR RECOVERING THE TRANSMISSION CAPACITIES OF A FIBRE-OPTIC LINK SUBJECTED TO IONISING OR NONIONISING RADIATION

摘要

This device comprises in combination at least one optical fibre (1) micro-structured with holes parallel to the axis of propagation in said fibre (1) and at least one remote processing assembly (E) coupled to one of the accessible ends of the fibre (1) and able to inject a gas through the holes (1b) in said fibre (1) in order to passivate radiation-induced defects.
