A novel hydrogen (H2) sensor was developed using optical fiber coated with manganese dioxide (MnO2) nanostructures. Optical multimode fiber (MMF) of 125 μm in diameter as the transducing platform was tapered to 20 μm to enhance the evanescent field of the light propagates in the fiber core. The tape...
