摘要
The present paper summarizes a detailed design study of a novel piezoresistive humidity sensor, the operation of which relies on the humidity-induced swelling of thin polyimide layers. The purpose of this study was to gain a better understanding of the general metrological behavior of the sensors, with a systematic optimization of the device structure in mind. The design study is based on newly developed analytical models for the offset and full-scale output parameters of the sensor. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science S.A. All rights reserved.
