摘要
The humidity sensing properties of La3+/Ce3+-doped TiO2-20 wt.%SnO2 thin films were studied. Sol-gel method was employed to prepare the films on alumina substrates. By constructing a humidity-impedance measuring system, the sensing behaviors were inspected for the films sintered at different temperatures. Experimental results showed that, 0.5 wt.% of La2O3 or Ce2O3 doped films sintered at 500 degrees C for 2 h had the best humidity sensing properties, the impedance decreasing from 10(9) Omega to below 10(4) Omega in the humidity range of 15-95 RH%. Moreover. Ce3+-doping had better humidity sensing properties than La3+-doping. The doping mechanism was discussed in terms of phase composition, granularity of crystalline and segregation of rare earth ions at grain boundaries.
