title: Effects of color centers absorption on the spectrum of the temperature-dependent radiation-induced attenuation in fiber.
abstract: Spectra ranging from 800 to 1650 nm of the temperature-dependent radiation-induced attenuation (RIA) in the irradiated and sufficiently annealed fiber with germanium and phosphorous dopant has been measured. These RIA spectra were investigated based on the mechanism of color centers absorption. With the configurational coordinate model, these RIA spectra were decomposed by the absorption bands of three kinds of color centers. The effects of color centers absorption on the spectrum of temperature-dependent RIA is discussed by comparing the absorption intensity of different color centers at a same wavelength. Moreover, the temperature-dependent RIA of the fiber has been measured separately at 850, 1310, and 1550 nm. The measured results agreed well with the analysis of RIA spectra.
