Abstract

We study the effect of hydrogen gas diffusion in silica optical fibers on Brillouin and Rayleigh scatterings. By modeling hydrogen diffusion kinetics as a function of temperature and pressure and by measuring simultaneously Rayleigh and Brillouin scattering on G652 single-mode fiber samples during H₂ desorption (previously exposed to 175 bars H₂ at 80°C), we have demonstrated experimentally that acoustic velocity increases linearly with H2 concentration with a ratio of about (4.8 m/s) / (%mol H₂).
