A liquid filled microstructured optical fiber (MOF) is used to detect x-rays. Numerical analysis and experimental observation leads to geometric fiber optics theory for MOF photon transmission. A model using this theory relates the quantity and energy of absorbed x-ray photons to transmitted MOF generated photons. Experimental measurements of MOF photon quantities compared with calculated values show good qualitative agreement. The difference between the calculated and measured values is discussed.
一种填充液体的微结构光纤(MOF)被用于检测X射线。数值分析和实验观察得出了用于MOF光子传输的几何光纤光学理论。基于该理论的一个模型将吸收的X射线光子的数量和能量与MOF产生并传输的光子联系起来。将MOF光子数量的实验测量值与计算值进行比较,结果显示出良好的定性一致性。文中还讨论了计算值与测量值之间的差异。
