The readout system of the ATLAS inner detector for SLHC will need to cope with ten
time’s higher radiation doses than the current ATLAS inner detector readout system.
It is an open question of whether the current opto-electronic readout system could
be used at SLHC. This is a critical question for the detector design as it will
have a major influence on the layout of the readout. We have...

Lasers and photodiodes used currently in CMS, alongside new, faster components,
were irradiated for the first time to very high neutron fluences, up to
2x10^16n/cm2. The usual radiation effects in lasers and photodiodes were observed,
with the ultimate failure point of the device being observed for the first time. As
this was a particularly aggressive test these types of components are...

We report on the evaluation of Commercial Off-The-Shelf (COTS) optical transceivers
for use in future readout and control systems of upgraded detectors for SLHC. The
critical performance metrics and operational constraints on the required inputs –
notably the reference clocks – will be described. Measurements of these performance
metrics on samples of COTS small form-factor XFP...
