“…Recently, H 2 sensors have gained increased interest due to its application in many significant areas. Various methods have been reported for the development of H 2 sensors based on metal-oxide [ 4 , 5 ], nanowires [ 6 , 7 ], acoustic wave [ 8 , 9 ], thin film metal and semiconductor [ 10 , 11 ]. Most of the approaches utilize Pd as a catalyst, since Pd has great affinity towards H 2 absorption [ 12 - 14 ].…”
