Description
Summary:Humidity sensitive field effect transistors for an integrated humidity sensors have been fabricated using conventional silicon microtechnology and their hygroscopic characteristics have been investigated. We applied the lift-off techniques for 1000 /spl Aring/ TiO/sub 2/ films on gate region. The devices showed typical enhancement characteristics and threshold voltage was about 2.3 V in 60%RH. It can be seen that the threshold voltages of HUSFET decreased from 2.5 V to 2.0 V according to increasing the relative humidities from 30% to 90%. The simulation was carried out for a series of values of relative permittivity (/spl epsiv//sub r/), which was varied between 123 and 223.
