摘要

Abstract

For the rapid development of the hydrogen economy

a reliable and low-cost hydrogen sensor appears to be extremely important. Here

we first show that a palladium film deposited on polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) can obtain an exceedingly high-reflectance contrast of 25.78 over the entire visible band upon exposure to 4 vol% hydrogen gas (H

2

) mixed with nitrogen gas. This high-reflectance contrast results from the surface deformation induced by the volume inflation after exposure to H

2

leading to the transition of the near-specular surface to a diffusing surface. In addition

a change in brightness is readable by naked eye upon exposure to H

2

with various concentrations from 0.6 to 1 vol% under the illumination of a fluorescent tube. Furthermore

this sensor possesses an excellent recyclability and quick response time of a few seconds. Compared with Pd nanostructure-based hydrogen sensors

this visual

high-contrast and low-cost sensor is of great potential for practical hydrogen sensing.
