摘要: Abstract Carbon films modified by means of Na2CO3 were tested as a novel material for the construction humidity sensors. On contrary, to “virgin” carbon and some alkali metal compounds like hydroxides, acetates or chlorides, Na2CO3-modified materials exhibit mixed conduction mechanism. Beside hole/electron carbon, behave ionic conductor provided relative is high enough. During carbonisation, applied modifier forms nano-crystals on surface in bulk semiconductor matrix. The inorganic dissolve dissociate layer adsorbed water. Ions produced this way increase electric conductivity system contributing significantly total current passing through carbonate-modified films. highly sensitive water vapour. Water adsorption induced resistance changes film are reversible therefore may be obtained other carbonates modifiers similar way.
