Figure 1. Photothermal synergistic TPP hydrogen detection system integrated at the tip of an optical fiber. (a) A 3D schematic of the fiber-optic TPP tip illuminated simultaneously by a halogen light ...

A new study documents an inexpensive, spark-free, optical-based hydrogen sensor that is more sensitive -- and faster -- than previous models. Hydrogen as a clean, renewable alternative to fossil fuels ...

(Nanowerk News) Hydrogen is seen as an important part of the decarbonisation of the heavy transport sector and around the world hydrogen-powered trains, trucks and airplanes are being developed and ...

At the heart of the detector is a palladium (Pd) coated tapered fiber which is inserted into the cavity of an erbium-doped fiber laser. "An important aspect of Pd is the fact that its reaction with ...

Within the OVERLEAF project, researchers have find that tantalum outperforms palladium-based materials for hydrogen sensing at temperatures up to 270°c Hydrogen sensors are essential in sectors such ...

It’s always interesting to see how scientists and engineers have exploited—in the positive sense of the word—somewhat obscure, fundamental physics principles to create innovative sensors. For example, ...

Fiber-optic sensors work well in tight spots and in applications with a high degree of electrical noise, but care must be taken when specifying these critical components. Sensing part presence in ...

For the first time, researchers have fabricated sensing elements known as fiber Bragg gratings inside optical fibers designed to dissolve completely inside the body. For the first time, researchers ...

In the pursuit of clean and renewable energy, hydrogen plays an important role. But a major challenge facing this transition is that the gas is explosive when mixed with air. For this reason, it is ...
