Abstract: A gas sensor includes a plurality of detectors discolored by reacting with different predetermined target gases, such that the gas sensor independently measures the amount of each target gas. A refrigerator for deciding a type and state of target food contained in a container by sensing a color change of a gas sensor mounted to the container including the target food, and a method for controlling the gas sensor are disclosed. The gas sensor for detecting a plurality of target gases includes a base and a plurality of detectors provided at the base. The detectors respectively detect different target gases, and each detector is discolored by reacting with each predetermined target gas.

Abstract: Disclosed is an optical gas sensor. The optical gas sensor includes: a light source which emits light; a gas collector which includes a cavity to be filled with gas to be sensed; an optical wave guider which guides light emitted from the light source to be output to the cavity, and guides the output light to be output again to the cavity after passing through the cavity of the gas collector; and an optical detector which detects light output from the optical wave guider. Thus, a path of light exposed to the gas to be sensed is increased within the cavity, thereby achieving miniaturization and sensing gas of low-concentration.
