Abstract
Considering the poor response performance of fiber bragg grating (FBG) sensor based on WO3, in this paper, a polymer intercalated method is proposed to accomplish high-performance optical fiber hydrogen sensor. Tetrabutylammonium hydroxide (TBAOH) molecule intercalated WO3 are synthesized successfully and the effect of the intercalation amount to sensing performance has been investigated. The experiment results show that, at the concentration of 10,000 ppm, the t90 response time of the sensor based on TBAOH-Pt/WO3 is improved by 308% compared with that of WO3 FBG sensor. In addition, the FBG hydrogen sensor based on the novel materials can detect hydrogen concentration ranging from 300 ppm to 12,000 ppm in air, demonstrating excellent stability and repeatability, which show wide application prospect in the future.
