Formation and Humidity-Sensitive Characteristics of Anodically Oxidized porous Silicon Films

The formation properties and oxidation mechanism of electrochemically oxidized porous silicon(OPS) films have been studied. To examine the humidity-sensitive properties of OPS films, surface-type and bulk-type humidity sensors were fabricated. The oxidized thickness of porous silicon layer(PSL) increases with the charge supplied during electrochemical oxidation and current density. The humidity sensor shows high sensitivity at high relative humidity in low temperature. The sensitivity and linearity can be improved by increasing a porosity of PSL.
