Inhalt:
In this work, ALD films are developed by alternately applying semiconducting ZnO grains and dielectric Al2O3 grains which result in homogeneous composites with humidity-sensitive properties. Various films, which differ in the grain size ratio of ZnO to Al2O3, are tested with 2D sensor structures. IV-t measurements during interaction of the films with applied water droplets reveal current and resistance changes of up to five orders of magnitude. 3D applicability of these humidity-sensitive films is proven by cross-sectional SEM images of an all-around coated silicon chip.
