Attenuation Lengths and Light Yield Analysis of New 14080801-06 Batch by Kuraray

This update details the attenuation lengths and light yield (LY) findings for the new Kuraray batch 14080801-06. Our measurements confirm that attenuation lengths fall short of expectations. We compared light yields of two 1000ppm fiber samples, revealing that the Dortmund sample yields approximately 20% more light than the 2014 sample. Utilizing a single-fiber setup, we achieved reliable light yield measurements across varying distances. Our theoretical model accurately fits the single-fiber spectra, although discrepancies were noted when four fibers were used.

  1. Update on Attenuation Lengths and Light Yield C. Alfieri 20.08.2014

  2. Attenuation Lengths of the new 14080801-06 batch measured by Kuraray. • Attenuation lengths below expectations confirmed.

  3. We compared LY for two 1000ppm fibre samples (lot 14080803 and the “Dortmund sample”). • LY measured up to 240cm. • The Dortmund sample shows on average 20% higher LY than the 2014 1000ppm sample.

  4. With our set-up, we could measure LY with just 1 signal fibre at every distance for the Dortmund sample. • Our theoretical model well fits the one-single-fibre spectra (it didn’t with 4 fibres). • We could extract Npe with a ROOT routine. P=Poisson G=Gauss

  5. With 4 fibres we underestimate low photoelectrons’ contribution. Due to: Misalignment?? (Electrons maybe don’t always pass through all the 4 fibres). ≈270μm Xtalk?? (Fibres are tangled: can some helical mode photon pass from one fibre to another?)

  6. Single fibre and 4 fibre LYs show differences • Single fibre LY (from fit) multiplied by 4 is ≈10% higher than 4fibre LY (from COG). • Ly1fibre*4/Ly4fibre quite stable at all distances. • Still possible to use 4 fibre for relative LY measurements (signals easier to read-out for fibres with low LY at distances >2m).
