Abstract
In this paper, we present a comparative study of Graphene Oxide (GO) and chemically reduced Graphene Oxide (rGO) based resistive type humidity sensors fabricated on Ti/Au Inter-Digital Electrodes (IDEs) coated SiO2 substrates. The sensing performance, including sensitivity, response/recovery time, and hysteresis has been evaluated for both sensors. The GO film exhibited quick response (0.3 s) and high sensitivity (104.7 kΩ/%RH) with remarkable repeatability and negligible hysteresis as compared to rGO film sensor. The excellent humidity sensing properties of GO are attributed to the presence of abundant oxygen-containing polar functional groups on GO relative to rGO. To demonstrate the multifunctional applications of developed GO based sensor, we have also demonstrated its use as respiratory monitoring, non-contact proximity detector, and speech event detector through the detection of humidity perturbations. The work suggests GO sensitive material has high potential for the development of wearable and integrated health monitoring platforms and non-contact sensing devices.
