The proposed method analyzes the time evolution of reflection spectra to determine the complex dielectric permittivity dynamics in gasochromic oxides, as well as to estimate the diffusion coefficient in gasochromic oxide layers. Experimental results demonstrated the effectiveness of this method in hydrogen-sensitive trilayers, with response times and detection limits achieved for hydrogen concentrations. The study emphasizes the importance of retrieving the dielectric permittivity dynamics of WO3 for accurately evaluating response times in gasochromic nanostructures.
We propose a method for determining complex dielectric permittivity dynamics in the gasochromic oxides in the course of their interaction with a gas as well as for estimating the diffusion coefficient into a gasochromic oxide layer. The method is based on analysis of a time evolution of reflection spectra measured in the Kretschmann configuration. The method is demonstrated with a hydrogen-sensitive trilayer including an Au plasmonic film, WO3 gasochromic oxide layer, and Pt catalyst. Angular dependences of the reflectance as well as transmission spectra of the trilayer were measured in series at a constant flow of gas mixtures with hydrogen concentrations in a range of 0-0.36%, and a detection limit below 40 ppm (0.004%) of H-2 was demonstrated. Response times to hydrogen were found in different ways. We show that the dielectric permittivity dynamics of WO3 must be retrieved in order to correctly evaluate the response time, whereas a direct evaluation from intensity changes for chosen wavelengths may have a high discrepancy. The proposed method gives insight into the optical properties dynamics for sensing elements based on gasochromic nanostructures.
