One of the technological challenges for hydrogen sensors is long-term stability and reliability. In this article, the UV-light irradiation was introduced into the hydrogen sensing process based on water photolysis effect of Pt/WO<sub>3</sub>. Ascribing to that, fiber optic hydrogen sensor with Pt/WO<sub>3</sub> nanosheets as the sensing element was demonstrated with significantly improved performance of stability. Under UV irradiation, the hydrogen sensor exhibits higher sensitivity and resoluti ...[more]
