격자전극을 가진 질화탄소막을 이용하여 새로운 습도센서를 개발하였다. 결정성 질화탄소막의 감습 특성을 조사하고, 광범위한 상대습도($10%\sim90%$)에 대해 민감한 임피던스와 커패시턴스 의존도를 보였다. 특히 격자전극은 습기의 자유로운 흡 탈착을 용이 하게 하여 센서의 히스테리시스를 줄였다. 또한, 질화탄소막은 물리, 화학적으로 안정한 물질이므로 고온, 고습 및 화학적으로 열악한 환경 속에서도 뛰어난 특성 을 나타내었다.

A capacitive humidity sensor is used as a test device to characterize the performance of iodine doped polyphenylacetylene(PPA) thin films in relative humidity sensing application In comparison with undoped PPA thin films. the iodine doped PPA films showed higher sensitivity(0.19pF/%RH), better linearity(4.2%FS), much lower hysteresis and lower temperature coefficients(0.043 $\sim$ 0.067pF/$^{\circ}C$) over a wide range of relative humidity.

In this work, we deposited SWNTs/silane hybrid thin films by multiple spray-coating on glass substrate, and examined their electrical response for humidity. Generally silane binders which are often used in CNT solution to adhere CNTs to substrate well can be easily functionalized to each own group on the surface of CNTs after they are hardened by way of the hydrolysis reaction. We investigated how silane binders (TEOS,, MTMS and VTMS) in SWNTs hybrid thin films make effect to their electrical response on humidity. As the result, we observed that the resistance in the sample using TEOS was changed dramatically while it was almost invariant in the samples using MTMS and VTMS for increasing humidity.

This study performed experimental research to visualize the moisture content absorbed in R-22, refrigerant of refrigerator. Sulfuric acids were mixed with bromothylmol blue solution to make indicating solutions, and humidity papers were prepared by impregnation of the indicating solutions into solid supporters. Prior to the impregnation, small amount of lithium chloride was added into indicating solution. Moisture measuring cell was composed to test sensitivity of the humidity papers. Color changing characteristics of the humidity papers were also examined at various moisture contents in R-22. Color of the humidity paper varied linearly with the moisture content in R-22 in the range from 150 ppm to 300 ppm. The humidity papers showed complete color change to yellow at the moisture content of 300 ppm within 8 hours.

In this paper, an experiment about humidity sensing properties of oxide aluminum films by Anodic oxidation method was made. The humidity sensing properties of films were investigated in the relative humidity range of 10∼85(%RH) , changing the frequency from 1[kHz] to 100[kHz]. The impedance of humidity sensing films were decreased in accordance with the increase of relative humidity. The decreasing rate of impedance were larger at low measuring frequency. The decreasing difference changes from 17.7M$\Omega$ to 3.68M$\Omega$ at low measuring frequency.

The polymers with various composition of 4-vinylpyridine (4-VP) with n-butyl acrylate (n-BA) and 2-hydroxypropyl methacrylate (HPMA) were synthesized as a humidity sensitive material and quaternized with 1.5-dibromopentane. Resistance versus relative humidity decreased with increase in the content of n-BA 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 4-VP/n-BA/HPMA=80/10.10, the hysteresis and temperature coefficient were $\pm$2%RH and -0.42∼0.46%RH/$\^{C}$. The average resistance at 30%RH, 60%RH and 90%RH are 3.1㏁, 155 ㏀ and 7.9 ㏀, respectively.

$TiO_{2}-Co_{3}O_{4}$ humidity sensors were fabricated by conventional ceramic process and their humid sensing characteristics were investigated. The sample which was added 10wt% $Co_{3}O_{4}$ and heat-treated $1200^{\circ}C$ showed the highest sensitivity to humidity changes and improved a linearity. As $Co_{3}O_{4}$ content was increasing, the sensor consists a uniform pore distribution and grain in the surface. This was analyzed by SEM photographs.

연료전지 차랑용에 있어서 공기 가습 및 감습의 중요성은 매우 크다. 특히 PEM(Proton Exchange Membrane)연료전지에서 수분평형은 총괄시스템성능에 큰 영향을 미치는 요소인데, 이에 관한 중요한 연구가 지금까지 광범위하게 수행되고 있다. 또한 차량과 같이 동적부하 연료전지를 활용하는 분야에 있어서, 전류의 흐름은 차량용 파워 부하에 크게 영향을 받는다. 따라서 전기적 흐름이 발생하면, 이에 따라 수분이 발생하게 되는데, 이러한 응축 수분은 예측이 되며, 수관리 시스템에서 이를 중요한 제어 기준으로 활용한다. 그러므로 적절한 제어방법을 선택하면 유입공기의 온도와 습도의 최적값을 얻을 수 있다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 PEM 연료전지의 수관리를 위하여 수분전달 모델과 유전알고리즘(genetic algorithm)을 사용하는 제어방법에 초점을 두고 있다.

The humidity-sensitive specimens-(BaS11T-S1xTCaS1xT)TiOS13T, x=0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5-were fabricated by a solid-state reaction method which is easy in process control of microstructure and good in mass production, and their humidity-sensitive characteristics were examined. Ca inhibits grain growth and the open porosity increases with Ca substitution, and the specimens at x=0.5 show the best humidity sensitivity. Their humidity sensitivity is higher at the lower frequencies, and drift phenomenon in humidity sensitivity is exhibted with aging in the air, which disappears by a heat treatment. The electrical conduction with water adsorption is dominated by the ions, and the activation energy decreases with increasing relative humidity.
