▎ 摘  要

Porous polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) is physically flexible, thermally and chemically stable, relatively inexpensive, and commercially available. It is attractive for various flexible sensors. This paper has studied flexible capacitive humidity sensors fabricated on porous PTFE substrates. Graphene oxide (GO) was used as a sensing material, both hydrophobic and hydrophilic porous PTFE as the substrates, and interdigitated electrodes on the PTFE substrates were screen-printed. SEM and Raman spectrum were utilized to characterize GO and PTFE. An ethanol soak process is developed to increase the yield of the humidity sensors based on hydrophobic porous PTFE substrates. Static and dynamic properties of these sensors are tested and analyzed. It demonstrates that the flexible capacitive humidity sensors fabricated on the ethanol-treated hydrophobic PTFE exhibit high sensitivity, small hysteresis, and fast response/recovery time.
