Methacryloxyethyl dimethyl alkyl($C_{1}\sim C_{12}$, benzyl and 2, 2-diethoxy ethyl) ammonium bromide monomers were prepared to investigate the relative humidity characteristics for polymer electrolytes with different chemical structures. They were coated on the alumna substrate printed comblike gold electrode by photopolymerization after micro-syringe injection. As the thickness of rhe humid membrane increased, the impendance decreased, whereas the impedance ~ncreased as the carbon cham of alkyl substituent in the monomer increased. The impendance of the polymeric electrolytes with $C_6\sim C_8$ substituents were varied from 19M$\Omega$ to 5K$\Omega$ for the range of 30-90% Mi. The temperature depedence coefficient in the range of 15-$35^{\circ}C$ was found to be -0.45% $RH/^{\circ}C$and the hysteresis falled within the range of $\pm$2% RH. The response time was 35 second for varying humldity from 33% to 85% RH.

The $SnO_2/TiO_2$ thick film type humidity sensing devices containing 5 to 50 wt% $TiO_2$ have been fabricated by a typical screen printing technique. The surface crystal structure and microstructure were investigated by XRD, SEM and FTIR analyses. And the measurement of sensing characteristics of the thick film devices have been carried out. The crystalline phase of the thick flus were mainly identified as $(SnO_2){\cdot}6T$ crystal structure with XRD analysis, and the thick films sintered at $1300^{\circ}C$ showed an average particle size of $2.0{\mu}m$. The $SnO_2/TiO_2$ device sintered at $1300^{\circ}C$ containing 10 wt% $TiO_2$ showed high sensitivity to humidity in the range of R.H. 20-90%.

Vinylbenzyl triphenyl phosphonium chloride(VTPC)/styrenes=3.7 copolymer was prepared for the moisture-absorptive polyelectrolyte dew sensor containing phosphonium salts. The humid membrane was fabricated on the gold/alumina electrode by dipping. The impedances were $11M{\Omega}$, $980k{\Omega}$, $50k{\Omega}$, and $11k{\Omega}$ at 70%RH, 80%RH, 90%RH and 95%RH, respectively, at $25^{\circ}C$ and the humidity-sensitive charactristic was suitable for the dew sensor. The temperature-dependent coefficient between $15^{\circ}C$ and $35^{\circ}C$ was found to be $-0.25%RH/^{\circ}C$ and the hysteresis falled in the ${\pm}2%RH$ range. The response time was found to be 45 sec for the relative humidity ranging from 70%RH to 98%RH at $25^{\circ}C$. The reliabilities such as temperature cycle, humidity cycle, high temperature and humidity resistance, electrical load stability, stability of long-term storage and water durability were measured and evaluated for the application as a dew sensor.

The modified polyionene polyelectrolyte inks were newly prepared and applied to the humidity-sensitive membrane of humidity sensor. The films were fabricated on the alumina substrate with comb-type gold electrode using a ink-jet printing technique. The copolymers of methyl methacrylate, acrylic acid, 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate and [(2-methacryloyloxy)ethyl]trimethylammonium chloride were also prepared for the humidity-sensing material. which was fabricated by dip-coating method. Electrical measurements under various relative humidity were performed. The humidity-sensitive characteristics of sensors obtained by ink-jet printing technique were compared with that of dip-coating method. Humidity sensors showed a decrease in resistance as an increase of relative humidity and their resistance characteristics are in a close agreement each other.

정전결합 유동가스형 플라즈마 중합장치를 이용하여 여러가지 모노머에 대한 유기고분자 박막을 빗모양 전극위에 형성하고 이들 박막의 감습특성을 검토하기 위해 주파수범위를 60[kHz]-100[kHz]로 변화시켜 가면서 상대습도 20-90[%RH]범위에서 정전용량의 변화를 측정하였다. 상대습도가 증가함에 따라 정전용량은 일반적으로 증가했으며 방전조건중 방전전력이 낮을수록 그리고 중합시간이 짧을수록 정전용량의 증가폭이 크게 나타났다. 그리고 정전용량 측정시 박막에 인가한 전원의 주파수가 낮을수록 정전용량의 변화에 대한 선형성과 증가폭이 분명함을 알았다.

$(Ba_{0.5}\;Ca_{0.5})TiO_{3}$ humidity-sensitive devices were fabricated by a solid reaction method, and their electrical properties were investigated. The specimens exhibited good humidity sensitivity, in which the impedance changes linearly. It is shown that electrical conduction with moisture adsorption is dominated by the ions through characteristics of charging and discharing current, and electrical conductivity increases as rasing the temperature and relative humidity. It is realized that relative permittivity increases and activation energy decreases with increasing relative humidity.

We fabricated a capacitive-type humidity sensor using poly (p-phenylene ether sulfone: PES) as a humidity sensitive layer. The PES was dissolved in m-cresol $(CH_3C_6H_4OH)$ and spin-coated on ITO-coated glass substrate. Gold was deposited by sputtering as a water-permeable upper electrode. The capacitance of the sensor was inversely proportional to sensing film thicknesses and showed an excellent linearity of less than 1% in the humidity range of 20 to 90%. The sensor haying a $1.4{\mu}m$ sensing layer showed a hysteresis of 1.3% and a good sensitivity of 1.14 at 20 kHz.

The humidity sensor containing ammonium salt was prepared from the copolymer of 2-methacryloxyethyl dimethyl 2-hydroxyethyl ammonium bromide (MDHAB)/MMA/DAEMA = 6/3/1. The humid membrane was fabricated on the gold/alumina electrode by dipping. The impedances were $298k{\Omega},\;11k{\Omega}$, and $2.3k{\Omega}$ at 40%RH, 70%RH and 90%RH, respectively, at $5^{\circ}C$ and the humidity-sensitive characteristics were suitable for low temperature humidity sensor. The temperature-dependent coefficient between $5^{\circ}C$ and $20^{\circ}C$ was found to be $-0.80%RH/^{\circ}C$ and the hysteresis falled in the ${\pm}2%RH$ range. The response time was found to be 38 sec for the relative humidity ranging from 34%RH to 88%RH at $20^{\circ}C$. The reliabilities such as temperature cycle, humidity cycle, high temperature and humidity resistance, electrical load stability, stability of long-term storage and water durability were measured and evaluated for the application as a humidity sensor.

The copolymers with various composition of vinylbenzyl chloride (VBC), methyl methacrylate (MMA), and 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate(HEMA) were synthesized as a humidity sensitive material and quaternized with N, N, N', N'-tetraethylene diamine.. Resistance versus relative humidity decreased with increase in the content of MMA in the copolymer. The introduction of HPMA increased the resistance of the humidity sensor as well as enhanced the adherence to the alumina substrate. In the case of VBC/MMA/HEMA=80/10/10, the hysteresis and temperature dependency coefficient were $\pm$2%RH and -0.46~0.42%RH/$^{\circ}C$. The average resistance at 30%RH, 60%RH and 90%RH were 3.0M$\Omega$ ,200k$\Omega$ and 9k$\Omega$, respectively.
