J. Lin et al., MANUFACTURE AND EXAMINATION OF VARIOUS SPIN-ON GLASS-FILMS WITH RESPECT TO THEIR HUMIDITY-SENSITIVE PROPERTIES, Sensors and actuators. B, Chemical, 13(1-3), 1993, pp. 104-106
SiO2 films produced by the sol-gel method were optimized with respect
to their pore size and pore distribution so that these films are suita
ble for use as a basic material for thin-film humidity sensors. A capa
citive humidity sensor is described which is distinguished by good rev
ersibility, high sensitivity, good linearity, short response time (< 1
0 s) and low cross-sensitivity towards other gases (SO2, CO2, NH3).
