Abstract

Recent advancements in fiber optic manufacturing, sensor design, and fiber optic interrogators have provided significant opportunities towards the development of cross-cutting fiber optic sensing solutions across the nuclear industry. The addressable harsh nuclear environment markets include Gen II, II+ and IV nuclear reactors, fusion reactors, and accelerator systems. In this work the authors present a series of developments towards the implementation of singlefiber, multipoint, temperature and pressure sensors, test results in high-temperature and high-radiation environments, cryogenic environments, material compatibility studies for sensor packaging, and future development needs to address technical challenges towards sensor commercialization.
