Hydrogen sensing using palladium coated long period gratings

The use of palladium coated optical fibres containing an in-fibre long period grating (LPG) structure for the sensing of low concentrations of hydrogen has been investigated. Previous proof of principle experiments were refined and extended, demonstrating sensitivities of up to 60 pm for 1% hydrogen...
