Popis: | In this paper, the static and dynamic characteristics of the MXene-based IDE capacitive humidity sensor are investigated through theoretical modeling and simulation. It is found that the capacitance increases according to the thickness of the sensing film within a certain range while stopping increases along with the growth of the thickness when the thickness is over a threshold. When the thickness is at a tiny level, a larger thickness does not lead to a significant increase in the response time due to the diffusion mechanism of water molecules. When the thickness increases to certain extent, there is an evident relationship between the response time and the change of thickness. For the humidity-sensitive film, under the same relative humidity conditions, the capacitance has a positive correlation with temperature, and the response time shows the opposite trend. Subsequent studies on the sensitive mechanisms of MXene materials explain these phenomena and demonstrate the accuracy of the model. This provides a more accurate method for sensor design. The properties of the MXene capacitive humidity sensor can be optimized by changing its structure and adjusting material parameters. |
