摘要
In this paper, the authors report the direct growth of ZnO nanowires (NWs) on a flexible substrate by the hydrothermal process and the fabrication of ZnO NW-based humidity sensor. It was found that average length and diameter of the ZnO NWs were 0.6 mu m and 50 nm, respectively. It was also found that resistance of the ZnO NWs decreased by 45% as we increased the relative humidity from 52% to 90%. Furthermore, it was found that measured resistance was very stable with negligible fluctuation after 16 days continuous testing.
