Abstract :
Gamma-ray radiation effect on the non-resonant third-order optical nonlinearity of the germano-silicate optical fiber has been investigated by the continuous-wave self-phase modulation method. The nonlinear refractive index, n2, of the gamma-ray irradiated optical fiber was found to increase linearly with the increase of the gamma-ray induced absorption. The increased n2 has been mainly ascribed to the NBOs and Ge-realted radiation-induced defects having hyperpolarizabilities.
