Description
Power over Fiber (PoF) technology has emerged as a resilient solution for delivering power in harsh environments, notably in cryogenic settings. This paper explores the application of PoF in extreme conditions, emphasizing its distinct advantages. In cryogenic environments, PoF offers a reliable means of power transmission, leveraging optical fibers to transfer power with minimal signal degradation. The PoF technology excels in maintaining low noise levels, crucial for sensitive equipment operating in extreme temperatures. Furthermore, PoF provides inherent electrical isolation, mitigating the risk of interference and enhancing system reliability.
Efficiency is a key attribute of PoF, as it minimizes energy losses during power transmission. The absence of electrical conductors ensures immunity to electromagnetic interference and radiofrequency interference, making PoF particularly suitable for cryogenic environments where traditional power delivery methods may fall short. This talk highlights the robustness of PoF in challenging conditions, underscoring its capacity to revolutionize power delivery and management in critical applications, offering a dependable solution with low noise, optimal efficiency, and superior isolation.
The PoF technology has been successfully developed for DUNE FD2 and is being deployed for the planned PD cathode system. Three years of effort has provided a series of successful improvements and possible pathways for further development. Ideally suited for future large volume LAr detectors, a roadmap of further PoF technology expansion will be discussed.
